Dear friends,

All good things must come to an end ..... Last evening, I found out that we have reached the system limit for number of pictures in a blog. Apparently Blogger sets 1000 as the maximum number of pictures or photos a blog can have, and we arrived at that mark yesterday.

I could continue to post just text entries, but I guess that won't be much fun. So I've decided to end this blog ... Thank you all and have a good life !





OK,OK, just kidding ....ha ha ha ! I won't end it just like that. What I'll do is create a new blog to continue from this one. I'd also like to use this point of transition to expand the audience for the blog. I'm told that the classes of 1976 have had a lot of good times on and through this blog, so I think it's time to extend the benefit to other fellow Josephians and friends. I intend to call the new blog "Josephians of the Seventies & Friends", which will obviously widen our potential visitors to anyone who was at St Joe between 1970 and 1979.

I will announce the new blog address in a day or two, and provide a link from this blog to the new one. I'm not quite sure what kind of response I will get, but with your support, let's give it a try.

You can continue to enter your comments to this and all past postings, so this blog will continue to live on. Also let me have your ideas and suggestions on creating an even better blog.

Have a nice day !

    We will fly....with the new blog.
    WJ,just follow your instincts and we will support you.
    Whatever you call it...the Josephian spirit will always prevail.
    Let's hear it from the rest !
    Cheers !

  5. Don't worry la boys, our beloved WJ won't do such a cruel thing as to end this blog.

    Our blog is going for greater heights, hopefully by next year we would have double the visitors of what we are having now this year.


    So everyone, spread the word about our blog to our older Josephians, and past teachers.

  6. JY@WJ, maintain the St Joe Form 5 (1976) & friends or abbrev SJS1976F5&f. Though I left in 1971 I'm very comfortable with it. Moreover, you guys from Form 5 1976 is the main reason why this blog exist. No problem and no worries, brother/old buddy...just continue from there. My two rupiah. :)

    Cheers!

  7. Thanks, JY for all the good work, it has been a great memorable journey and long may it continue.

    Best wishes and to say it was for the boys of Form 5, 1976 - we have connected with the juniors and seniors of SJS classes and even non SJS and not to forget some of the gals of STS and many others.

    On behalf of everyone - thank you, terima kaseh, JY and I am sure we all cannot wait for the new blogs.

  8. When someone stays too long as a chief he is likely to make irrational decision. But our WJ is only appointed one year and we can be assured that our blog shall be in good hands.

  11. Guys,
    Don't despair. WJ is trying to reach out to more Josephians. A great idea considering that not much more can be done to reach more 76ers.
    Rather you will get to reconnect with your seniors and juniors (like me). Haha.

    This website won't be closed, only that I can't seem to post any new images or photos since we've reached the limit. I will post text articles from time to time, and all of you can still continue to comment on any of the postings.

    I hope you will also participate in the new Josephians of the Seventies posting soon. After all, our cohort is an important part of that bigger grouping.

    Hope you are enjoying the kim chi.

  14. Sinos, take photos of you in Kim Chi Land, preferably with some Korean actresses also.

    NL, you also send me some photos from UK.

    Same applies to everyone else who is travelling. We can start a series of posts on "Josephians around the Globe"
