I didn't keep in touch with any of them afterwards, as I just didn't see any point.

i think thats quite a common reaction!

I would guess that a lot of the people that organise and go to these are people that were pretty much ignored at school and want to prove how much of a success they have become in later life. Sort of a "look at me now!" client.

I only went because one of the organisers was a guy I had met by chance a few times, in different places around Europe, in the years after we finished school. He was quite a popular bloke, and he hadn't changed too much since school, but it was a surprise to get a call. There was one particular guy who was always considered 'cool' back in the old days, but he turned into a right ass*ole.

I would not go to mine. Anyone who I wanted to stay in touch with from school I have. I am not bothered about the rest. I suppose if we were meant to be friends then we would have stayed in touch throughout the years.

Never been in the one school long enough to be asked to a reunion.
