We first met in Form 3 General in 1951 and have kept in touch over the years.

Last year we all celebrated our 80th birthdays in Napier with a dinner at The Mission Restaurant.  We have celebrated in the same way for our 60th and 70th birthdays.  Three of us live in Napier and the others travel from Wellington and Papamoa.
