Many thanks to the Windsor Society Committee for organising our reunion in Blackpool

More people at the bar than at the tables? Even though they didn't overlap, they knew many of the same people
The reunion was at the Norbreck Castle - at least it was keeping us out of the rain! My mate Phyllis had come over from Germany; Malcolm had come up from Hampshire 
Miss Jackson did our stage make up for "1066 And All That" So, how's it been with you?
Look, that's you in 1966!  I didn't know I had that! Place starting to fill up
Bob has a particular taste in shirts - does he reserve them specially for reunions, I wonder? Very animated memories, obviously
Bob is making his obligatory speech A lot of sign language going on!
Talking about old times And by chance I had a photo of a friend of her sister's!
JJ and Malcolm have a reminisce Pam (ella) came all the way from Oz to be with us
The 50's group - positioned themselves nearest to the bar and the facilities - I think Cathy is putting down her comments on the venue, as requested -
The 50's lot put their tables together Eyes down - very studious!
Do we get extra points for a longer list? Sometimes it's hard to remember names -
Bob's making sure we write down our comments Obviously a thoughtful moment - memory not always as good as we would wish!
One of the 70's tables Bob is circulating
Lots of photography going on Not sure what Bob is trying to say - at least two items on the list?
More 70's - obvious, innit, they look younger than us? Working out which button to press
Swapping stories Photos again -
Good to see 60's pupils mastering modern technology :-) I can't repeat what my Bob said about the beer
- photos with mobile phone too Busy at the bar
Some good rocking music Up a bit, down a bit, zoom -
Time for dancing - here's the band A craftsman at work - here's Bill
Lots of news to pass on 60's and 70's intermingling
"- and then I told her" -  "Good to see you again - "
Video running throughout the evening for those who wanted to watch it A rare gap in the rain
The videos of the school quickly snapped up - we have been promised a DVD Watery sunset
Not raining at the moment They've moved themselves out along with their balloons
Cooling off outside It was quieter in the corridor, too - that quickly got filled up!
Mid picture, balloons drifting ceiling-ward We had a good time and a good natter
The joint is still jumping - balloons starting to escape upwards Me and Phyllis
And then off to bed in our lovely bedroom! We would have been 15 or 16 at this point
Back to the Mayfield Hotel for a nightcap and a good laugh with our hosts - Jay and Ian - Jay is an ex-Windsor, too! (www.mayfieldhotel.org.uk) And this is me and Phyllis doing the lighting at school - Phyllis far left, me far right - just been cut off by the person taking the photo
