Hi There - who out there still remembers the old school motto: "Overcome
Evil with Good"?? While browsing through some very old stuff my mum had
kept for years, I came across some old school photos from my years at Moray Road Junior School (later, simply Moray Junior). My wife (& I) was amazed
to find that I still remembered the names of 95% of my old classmates from the years 1964 - 1968, particularly as a very severe motorcycle accident at the 1980 Trout Rally had left me with a total memory loss of about 8 weeks and a very sporadic short term memory ever since.

Getting back to the point - I have listed below, all the names I remembered plus the few whose surnames still escape me (apologies!!!), and have also included the few 1964 Prefects from the other class whose names I could remember. It would be great to hear from any of you out there, or anyone who knows anyone on the list - we could have a sort of a Cyber-Space Class Reunion! Please forward on!

Michael Allen Prefect 1968
Paul Broster Olympic swimmer 1972, Gifford Tech Allison Coombes Australian

Plumtree

I was the quiet, insignificant, bespectacled one who lived at no.15,
28th Ave, Famona and who came out of nowhere to be named the First Head Boy much to everyone's (not least of all, mine) amazement! Briefly, I went on
to stagger (literally) through a BSc(Eng) at UR from '75 - '78, had a
brief, but spectacularly unsucessful career as a Sergeant drill, weapons & general service knowledge instructor in the Air Force in '79, a slightly longer, but no more spectacular career with the Zim. Iron & Steel Co.,
before setting off to seek my fame & fortune in the Outside World in
general and in Saudi Arabia in particular.

After another equally spectacular series of mis-adventures (including being deported from the USA as a suspected ivory smuggler & general suspicious person and being targeted by the IRA in Regents Park all in the space of 48hrs, I have now finally found home & happiness in Perth, WA.

ps: This is my first try - hope it works!!

Hi Michael.
I saw your post and list. I am Tony Pickles younger sister Shelley. It is not good news but Tony passed away 11 years ago from cancer. Tony married and had 3 sons. When you see them you see Tony in them.

I do know that Vivienne Van Blerk is living in Durban as I married her cousin.

My email address is shellrich@telkomsa.net
