Today I met up with a few friends from my high school group, Ros, Fiona and Kathy.

We were part of a large group that hung around together at school and after school for a few years. Great fun and great times that I can still remember.

Some parts of the group had stayed in contact over the years, but now thanks to the wonders of Facebook in particular and the internet in general we’re all finding each other again.

It was fun to have a bit of lunch and catch up on what we’ve all been up to over the last xx years since we left high school. We’re hoping that sometime soon there will be a big reunion with the whole gang.

I hated high school. But hanging with this gang made it bearable.

Happy new year! Thursday, 1 January 2009

There was good friends, good food, good drink, great music, interpretive dance and an accidental fire. Just what every good new year’s eve needs!

Today is Ian M’s birthday. Last night we went to the Gladstone Hotel with friends Roger and Marina, Noel and Liz, and Dave to celebrate.
 
We’ve only recently “discovered” the Gladstone, though it’s been our local for three years. It’s had major renovations within the last few years and the atmostphere is friendly. The meals are tasty and reasonably priced, and the beer is cold! We think we’ll be going there more often in the future.

Happy birthday my darling!
