School Day Memories

Well being back on Facebook has been fun.  I ditched it early last year for several reasons, but as I have said, I need to keep an eye on Emily having tried unsucessfully to ban her from using it.  It's been nice catching up with some of my old school mates from Coffs Harbour High School.  Can you pick me out from the photo above?  Found out one of our number was killed in a car accident during the year, he wasn't a friend of mine but I certainly knew him.  So sad, but several of us aren't around anymore, that's life and death I guess.
I can say this here because none of my old school friends read this, but I saw a photo of one girl, who was probably the prettiest girl in our year, I also worked with her at one time, and remember feeling jealous of her.  I wouldn't  have recognised her, she must have had a very, very hard life.  Strange the way things turn out.  And one of the boys who was always such a dag is a hunk now in his fifties! 
We had a very lazy day today, but it was fun.  I got Phill's FB page up and running and managed to get the right emails attached to the right pages with a bit of juggling.  Found I had three different accounts for some reason.  The one thing I did miss was keeping up with all the nieces and nephews on both Phill's and my sides of the family.  Emily is in touch with my niece's daughter Lauren who just turned 18, they are so similar it's scary but will be nice for Em to have a cousin to talk to.  I hope.  I had to sit and explain who was who in our family which astounds me.  I know we don't see the family much these days but still......

Funny how you touched on family not knowing family.
Yesterday my Cheryl was saying she knows nothing about her nephews and nieces. Where they live, pictures of their kids, etc.
Her angry outburts have not helped her to bond. sigh!
I would love to join you on Facebook, but I am afraid my relatives would get snoopy and try to find out how I know you.
Have peeked in on you and yours.
