This is our class photo from 1996 in front of the Central School (now called St. Andrews) in Fraserburgh

We had a class reunion in the Station Hotel and we all had a very enjoyable evening, I only wished it lasted longer, my class friends broke away from each other after leaving school and it took all this time to get everyone back together

My recommendation is have your school reunion, you wont regret it, just make sure you plan it well in advance as the venue for your meal is usually a nightmare to get hold of
