First there’s a mass in the school chapel. Then we have pre-dinner drinks on the roof terrace, overlooking Sydney Harbour and the Opera House. It’s a balmy spring day today, so that should be rather nice. Then we move off to one of the function rooms for dinner and remininscences.
It will be very interesting to see what sort of turn-out we get from the Class of 1981.
Gratz Cunctator. That’s a lovely view there, and should be a fun party. 
It was a really great evening.
We got a very good turn out: 70 from an original class of 95. There had been 3 deaths and 8 others were living overseas and sent their apologies.
Class of 95? I had no idea you were such a baby.
I’m glad you had a good time. I didn’t go to any of my reunions, because I just wasn’t that close with my classmates.

You scare me. If you’re Class of '81, that means MY 30th reunion is coming up in two years. I had no idea I was that old. And I can guarantee that my 30th won’t be such a classy affair as yours was. Dayton, Ohio will never have the cachet of Sydney, I’m afraid.
Glad it went well! And you had a much nicer venue for your dinner than we did for the dinner at my thirtieth reunion this year, which was held in a hockey arena. 
Another one here who attended a Class of '81 reunion this year. Ours was fun, but yours certainly sounds classier.
It wasn’t just the catching up with fellow students that was fun. It was also great to find several of our old teachers there too. My chemistry teacher, who has since been ordained, offered the mass. And my maths teacher was there, looking fairly sprightly for a woman in her eighties. I couldn’t help but address her as “Miss Harris”; she responded that “after 30 years surely you can call me Eleanor”. I was just amazed by their phenomenal memories. They recalled all sorts of classroom incidents, and asked after my parents, by name.
I suspect so. Here’s the view from the rooftop terrace of the school.
I had thought you were an Old Ignatian, but a genteel one. There’s something distinct about the Jesuit education.
Quelle horreur!
Yes, I’ve had many people make that comment to me.
I loved our 30th reunion, even though it was in Stow Ohio.
Go Bulldogs!
Class of '79.
It’s supposed to be my 40th this year. I haven’t heard anything yet and the year’s getting away from us, so I think it probably won’t happen.
