The Mother of All Reunions - Part 6 (Walking Down Memory Lane)

This was from a rolling presentation I prepared which was shown on the screen before the Grand Reunion party began. It reflects in an alphabetic fashion various items or events or people who feature in our collective memories from the 60s and 70s. Enjoy ...
























































































































That's all folks !

    Beautiful presentation. I can imagine it being displayed maybe with music from the 70s.

    Well-thought & appropriately illustrated !!!!

    Well done, James, Ben & Leonard - Kudos and an "A+ for effort & presentation !!!

    Makes learning "ABC" so much fun and exciting !!! Can just go on & on !!!!

    "B" is for our "Blog-site" - a melting pot for us to interact in cyberspace.

    "L" is for the "Lucky Draw" & also for "London" where the two lucky winners will soon fly to !!!

    "R" also is for "ReUnions" , especially the "Mother of All Reunions" !!!

    "T" is for our "Teachers" - who selflessly taught and "educated" us, with much passion and commitment.

    "W" is for "Website Jaga" - the unsung hero who re-connects everyone from far and near.

    Cheers !!!

    Edmund, you are so right about 'W'. The assistants fought vigoriously for it. But the compiler had the final say.

    Apart from the 3 types of bicycles shown, there was one more, a bit like the Chopper but taller model. I remember Peter Tiong used to ride that type. A few others also.

    Another type of bicycle missing are the 'modified racing bikes' that Ben and the gang had in those days. I remembered the gang cycled all the way to Serian Ranchang Pool one fine morning at 4.30AM! Or was it 5AM?
