Blasts from the past
From time to time I hear from folk who some of you know from way back when. So I thought I'd add in a little update!
Thomas 017 - has just finished his first year at university (doesn't time fly??)
Brian - is still doing his radio show (he said he'd done a 6 hour election special recently!) Ann is now wheelchair-bound but still going strong.

Re: Blasts from the past
Erm...I can't remember where he said he was. I'm waiting for an update, so I'll check! I've asked if he minds if I post edited highlights of this year, so I'll let you know.
I don't know Rhys. I'm hoping to get a slight update on Stufarq soon...

Re: Blasts from the past
Good for you in finding out about the 'missing members'. Sorry to hear about Ann but somehow I don't think a set of wheels is going to slow her down (probably the reverse ).
Pass our best regards on to them (I'm sure you do) and let them know they're not forgotten.

Oh yes Rhysy ! He was a total scream. (Unintentionally most of the time)

Re: Blasts from the past
I haven't forgotten all of you guys! The first year of uni was soo much harder than I thought it would be! Barrels of fun, but hard.
And I'm studying Digital Film and 3D Animation Technology. When I get chance I'll try and quickly skim the first year.
Hope you're all doing well [:

Re: Blasts from the past
Hi Thomas, glad to know you are doing well. Just hang in there - it'll all be worth it in the end.
Btw, was it your school that made the news about being so strict?

Re: Blasts from the past
Yeah, only got another 3 years left of it!
You saw that? Yeah it was! The kids chosen to be on TV were the ones who had the "positive" view about it. To be honest, it looks a little bit more like a prison than a school with the gates put up around it now.

Re: Blasts from the past
Good to hear from you Thomas and good to hear about the others too. I must get a message to willamshk, not hear from her for a while, I'll try and see if she will answer an e-mail same with SueC.
I don't have hot flushes. I have short holidays in the Tropics.

Re: Blasts from the past
Suec has changed her email address (again). I still occasionally hear from her and will happily pass on messages.
And Lucy and Nell. Whatever happened to them? Nell must be home now. Lucy's small one must be gtting rather large now.

Re: Blasts from the past
Awhh that was nice to hear from Thomas
I saw his school on the news one morning and it had given out loads of detentions. It was like boot camp.

Re: Blasts from the past
Hi Everyone, it means a lot to know that you still remember me. The last couple of years have been very difficult for me, but hopefully now things are starting to get easier and I should be able to get back to some 'puzzling'. I've missed all my friends on the forum so it would be great to chat to everyone once again. Thanks LAT.
