Hi Mel,

Yep, I am still in touch with two guys that I went to school with. I left school in 1978 so ... not bad going I guess. One is my ex-partner .. we were an item for about 5 or six years having been best mates at school too ... we also played music in a band with two other guys, one of whom I've lost contact with (as has everyone else) however I still see the guitarist & am now friends with him & his long term partner who is an American born singer called Sumishta - also an excellent songwriter. Here is a link to her/their myspace page if anyone's interested :
http://www.myspace.com/13frightenedgirls 

(my old school buddy Keith is in the picture on the left behind Sum, he also happens to be, in my humble opinion, a really first rate guitarist)

Anyway, we all still regularly get together (maybe twice or three times a year) to have a good ol' fashioned jam session together even though I now live in Dover & they all are still in London. We've been playing music together for about 30 years now & still love it everytime!

How lucky am I ? Pretty fortunate I think ....  O0

Went to a high school of 4000 kids and I never see a one of them.  I have kept in touch with friends I worked with in high school though.

Nope. Went to high school in Alameda, CA.
Really don't keep in contact with anyone from college either.
Guess I'm an anti-social S.O.B.

New Prairie High School and Columbia City High, yeah I still keep in touch with a few people. I run into alot of classmates, but only correspond with a couple. I'm kinda reclusive out side of work and PC world. Actually I might be going to see a couple that got married after thier senior year(my junior) and they're still together and living close to my dads place.

Went to high school here in my hometown.  I still keep in contact with a few people, and others, I see when I'm out and about (grocery store, gas station, bar, ect...) but i'm not close with them.

I'm with Schro.  I am not a people person.  Very anti-social.  J/K.  Well, sort of.  But no, I don't talk to anyone from high school mainly because I would be in too much trouble and be doing stupid things if I stilled talked to the people I hung out with in high school.

I had a class of about 180.  I've been back for both my 10 and 20 year reunion.   We didn't have a very good turnout for either.  Other than these times, I've rarely ever seen anyone from high school

3 of my best friends I went to high school with (or actually we spent alot of time NOT going to high school together).

I dont go for that High School reunion or "Hey, its been so long keep in touch" e-mails I get now and then.

I have a lot of people from HS as friends on Facebook.
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.
