The Picketian 72 meet, 2019

 We have a group of school friends with whom we all connected , thanks to the internet after  forty years and we continue to be in touch  till today after forty nine years. It is a pity that though we could connect to many of the boys very few girls who were professionals were connected and there was no trace of the others. After school,1969-1972,  we all had trodden different paths, our lives had taken different turns  and yet some thing that bound us together was the time spent in school, the teachers who taught us, the pranks we played together and the punishments we had received together, or in short  the wonderful time that we all had at school.  Some of these students served as Doctors, Engineers, CEO’s of Companies, Directors, Ship Captains, Senior Officers in Railways, Army, Navy and the Air force,  National Geological survey, the Airline, academicians and in many other senior positions.  They were spread all over India in Bangalore, Chennai, Poona, Hyderabad, Delhi  and in the USA, Canada  and  Australia. When we meet it is as if time had stood still. We just forgot that we were all now sixty three and above.  When we interacted with the other it is as if we are still fourteen or fifteen years old.We meet once in a while and on this Saturday we had another get together and friends flew in from Bangalore, USA. It is a great bonding with friends from school that continuesand makes our lives very meaningful.
