But on the whole I think it's best not. A few of us are facebook friends now and we simply have nothing in common anymore. It's actually kind of nice to have come to that conclusion though. It saves me from thinking 'what if ...' and 'I wonder ...'<br /><br />xo FrancescaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-540809747394327987.post-15797861141450213032010-09-08T22:55:28.388+10:002010-09-08T22:55:28.388+10:00Apart from my one-year reunion I haven't been ...Apart from my one-year reunion I haven't been to any because I've always been overseas for them, which annoys me as I'd like to know what people are doing, although FB has sort of let everyone have a reunion without having to leave the house. I'll definitely try to be at the next one but judging by some of the pictures of reunions I've seen, particularly of the boys, I might not recognise a lot of people... why is it that so many of the guys in particular seem to age so fast?!Fourth Daughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16289520392967828383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-540809747394327987.post-41947348413350623212010-09-08T11:07:58.540+10:002010-09-08T11:07:58.540+10:00Loretta, I'm calling you right now!!!!Loretta, I'm calling you right now!!!!Cazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11853693147709202804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-540809747394327987.post-66985154445464460542010-09-08T11:07:36.530+10:002010-09-08T11:07:36.530+10:00Manu, I have had a sneaky look on FB but he has a ...Manu, I have had a sneaky look on FB but he has a very common name!

A better title for it would be 'The House: Great Architectural and Engineering Feats in 18th and 19th century Britain and America' (not very catchy I know!). The fact that it had little if anything to do with 'home' bugged me when I was reading it but on reflection there were some great stories in it about the Great Exhibition, English gardens, Fonthill Abbey and American presidents building houses. I'm sure you would enjoy it.Cazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11853693147709202804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-540809747394327987.post-90725437657639226202010-09-08T06:37:21.111+10:002010-09-08T06:37:21.111+10:00So well put Caz.

You were brave to go. Can't wait to talk in person. Have we been friends for that long. I am very fortunate.

Maybe for 15....<br />I've also found old HS friends on Facebook, but most I ditched after we'd swapped pleasantries and where-are-they-now info - We just had nothing in common any more!<br />The few I still keep in touch with, is because we actually knew each other and were friends/friendly then, and now still feel a connection. <br />If I ran into the boy I had a crush on in school, I'd probably still try to hide from him- bet he's married with kids now anyway. ;-)<br />(Y'know, i could probably find him on FB, I've seen him in the 'friends' list of some of my friends...)Manuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12590137059245930934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-540809747394327987.post-55921499302067491542010-09-07T16:05:17.676+10:002010-09-07T16:05:17.676+10:00Glad you didn't get blown away last weekend......Glad you didn't get blown away last weekend...I was worried about you all.<br /><br />I went to an all girls grammar school so no fear of running into first loves at reunions ......but I have been in contact with people on Facebook. Still the same lovely way with words, but it's amazing how time can change peoples looks and lithe youths can become rotund and bald if they're not careful.....too much of the good life! <br /><br />By the way, how did you get on with Bill Bryson's 'At Home'? Do you recommend getting it?debby emadianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12222092755385566586noreply@blogger.com
