Want A Photograph Taken!

[Nicky Hodge]

Good idea, Michele, saplings these days need all the nurturing they can get. You wouldn't want them turning skELM!!

[Michele Alexander (Voden)]

Yes, well, you know the YEWth of today, we don't want them suffering from STUNTED GROWTH

[Michele Alexander (Voden)]

Sorry Nicky and Paul - Mike wants us to upROOT ourselves and REPLANT our WOODEN posts to the "Anything that Goes" section! Hopefully we will continue to SPROUT!

Yes please . . . 19 Outer Crescent.  I lived there with my parents Percy and Doreen Margetts from 1968 to 1978.  It would be great to see what it looks like over the grass towards the sweeping curve of the road coming into town.

Thank you,
Keith Margetts.

May I say a big thank you for sharing Patricia Lotte's pictures, they are outstanding and capture the school as i remeber it.
Patricia, as in Linekar I believe, hello and thank you.  Dubai it says, a far way from home. All the best. B

[Nicky Hodge]

I have to agree with you Barbara, they are just great aren't they? The school seems like it has hardly changed at all. Remember the art room with Miss Solomon? It still looks very neat and tidy which is good. Thanks from me too.

Morning Folks, I was also impressed with the quality of the Pictures taken by Patricia, however I must point out that she is actually Patricia Lotte, sister of Katia Lotte, or the Frenchies, who lived here, I think in the late 70's, and not Patricia Lineker, who I think lived somewhere down in the Cape...

Patricia Lotte was a active on the "old" guestbook over at "The Other Oranjemund Page", a good few years back, and spoke about coming back for a quick visit, which she did in Nov 2004... The only problem was , she sneaked into town  ;D, and I only heard that she had been here after she had gone. I heard about this French woman wandering around the town taking photo's and if I'm not mistaken, she was mentioned in the Newsletter thereafter.....

Great Pics indeed Patricia.....

;)

thanks for clearing that up.

[Michael Alexander]

Michael, what do you mean a short drink.  By the sounds of things there is no such thing in your world.
But then again you are the one who forgot your whiskey (my reaction lol,  What he didn't finish the bottle.) Maybe you just take recycling of glass bottles real serious.
