Gee Sigmund, you're even worse than me when it comes to remembering names ... Ok, the only ones I had were the 2 Ruf brothers and that's an easy one as we were neighbours ...

[Bertie Horak]

Hi Sigmund - yes I posted the picture as well under "Beauvallon today" somewhere else on the forum.  All I can add is Kobus' brother was Ben Wiese. In second row to my left is Johannes Esterhuizen (Henda's brother), John Smith.

@ Bertie. Sorry didn't know that you've posted the pic allready.... but just for interest sake.... how the hell do you make a connection between "Beauvellon today" and a choir pic?

[Bertie Horak]

@ Sigmund -  . No problem, here's the connection - Georg Snr posted a video and photographs of the Ruf kids fishing at Beauvallon.  The only picture I could find with the boys, was the choir photo, so I posted it.  I know, I know, not really very bright, but hey, I was still figuring out how this topic thing works on the forum!   
I think if we throw our names together, we might have about everybody!

Wow! This brings back such memories.  There I am - third from right (Erika Rauh) - look at the hair?!  Far right is Amelia Maritz, my best friend and Uzane Botes fifth from right.  In the front row third from right is Bernard Wiese.  I recognize quite a few other faces, but can unfortunately not put names to them.

Hi Erika, welcome to the board..... keep sharing those memories, your memories might trigger a few of our memories.... if you need any help, just shout...you cannot break anything....

[georg ruf jr.]

I think the guy in the front row far right is a van de Merwe.

[Gert Briers]

Definitely 1975

Hi Everyone

I'm amazed that I've only now found out about this site.  I've been reading through some of the posts - its fantastic.  I'm in the back row - 2nd from the left and if Im not mistaken its Lynette Bezuidenhout to my left.
