I'm sure the girl 7th from the left in the top row and the boy 4th from the right in the 2nd row are Standers. Father was Barry they were both very good swimmers,Don't remember their names.

the Guy third to the left of Delia ,tall,blond is my brother Steven,

Barbara - I remember your brother Steven. This photo is very similar to the other one that was posted some time ago. Delia remembered most of the names. I think she should take a look at this one and refresh our memories again.

Diana, you are right - the girls name is Annemarie, but I can't remember her brothers name.

Sheena still looks the same - !

Isn't that you Dalene 2nd row from top and 2nd from the right hand?

georg ruf jr. · February 28, 2008, 04:34:11 AM

The top row, 3rd from right with glasses. She looks familiar. Alicon???

No George, I was never in the swimming team. That girl is Marleen Coetzee, daughter of Rooi Andries and Linda Coetzee. I think her brother, Charl, is still living in Oranjemund. Anyone know?

2nd row from the front, 4th guy from the right, I think is Scott Wallace (not sure though) and next to him could be Stephanie Carr

He was an "Afrikaaner" as far as I remember. I think he was the guy who bit in his tongue when jumping from the 1meter board. I mentioned that in a former pool topic.

Patricia Lotte · February 28, 2008, 11:53:07 AM

No, Scott was definately not an Afrikaaner, maybe Scottish or something like that. He was in my class.

georg ruf jr. · February 28, 2008, 12:32:18 PM

I'm sure I'm getting him mixed up then...

Charl married Faye Bowen and moved to Okahandja about 2 - 3 years back.... Marleen married Mike Curtis and now lives in Windhoek....
