Freeloading Phill and ...

The 30 year Reunion

So two Saturday's gone was the event of One's 30 year high school reunion.

Getting there was a carefully staged affair commencing at BestFriendSincePrep's demesne before being chauffeur driven in style by MrRealEstate to collect MrRogers and arrive fashionably on time.

Once there we reintroduced ourselves to the fabulous organising committee and other early arrivals. Others arrived throughout the early evening until we reached the lofty heights of 40 odd attendees.

One had a great time catching up with the likes of Eggers, Piggy, Serbo, Plumb, Shill, Ross, Jo J, The Twins, Stivey, Whitey, Maz, Mima, Maria, and countless others I've forgotten in the blur that the evening became.

Apparently one has, once again, not changed a bit - although Eggers theory that a man still having his hair at our age was the only qualifier for that statement did take some of the chuffedness away.


One would have liked to catch up with many who didn't make an appearance such as Leno, Mr Shatilko, Mr Gates, Stevie Nicks greatest Fan, and really any other to see where we'd all been taken on our paths of life.


Finally, to top the evening off, One had a true High School moment when entering the Taxi for home as one's trousers, unable to bear the load of drinking and snacking gave way requiring concealing manoeuvres until one could make it home.


One looks forward to another get together in a few years to celebrate our joint half century.

Was a little far for me to commute, being the other side of the world and all, however I would have liked to have caught up with you, some of the others not so much. Haven't heard from Stevie Nicks' biggest fan in a while either. Maybe I'll be there for 40th...wheels are in motion for a big move in the next couple of years. Mr Gates.
