There are places I remember
all my life,
Though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain.
[ Beatles - In My Life ]
I attended a school mates re-union in the last week of July. About 50 of us from different parts if India / the globe, met up at the Alma Mater in Pune, and spent a good part of 3 days catching-up with each other, reminiscing, and basically becoming kids once more.
The official term for ex-students at Bishops is “Old Boys”, and that should tell you something.
We had a terrific time as we met up with old teachers, our ex-principal & his wife who was the head mistress. Played basket ball / volley ball with the present kids, who seemed like bachhas compared to when we were at school. But then all guys feel that way I guess.
20 years is a long time to catch up; but what made it easier is that most of us could pick up where we left off last.
