I just received a message from an old school friend, Miriam. She managed to go to the Pates Reunion this year, and seemed to enjoy herself there. Anyway, hopefully we will be able to meet up after my trip to Amsterdam, though I don’t yet know if it will be in Cheltenham or Clydach. Combined with meeting up with Alex and ChrisD in Amsterdam, and hopefully seeing a few other friends in Cheltenham, it looks like I will be pretty busy. It was really good to hear from her, and I hope we manage to catch up with each other lives soon.
