ARBORFIELD OLD BOYS ASSOCIATION 53rd
REUNION.
ALREWAS - Friday 15th July to Sunday 17th
July 2016 inclusive.
The following
report contributed by Trevor STUBBERFIELD (52A) Photographic
contributions as attributed. Photos included in this report remain the Copyright
© of Max WARWICK 49B (MW) and Trevor
STUBBERFIELD 52A (TS) and should not be copied without the
express permission of the owners. ________________________________________________________________________________ Preamble Readers of previous reunion
reports, here on the 49ers web site, will know that this diary of the 53rd
Arborfield Old Boy’s Association Reunion is not official, nor is it formal or
factual. It’s just one Old Boy’s
personal view of the weekend, written for friends who couldn’t attend, to
give them a feeling of the occasion.
More actual and factual reports will be found on the Arborfield
Old Boys Association Web Site and in the AOBA
magazine OBAN, along with many more photographs. Here would be a good place to
acknowledge all the hard work put in by the members of the AOBA Committee,
without which these reunions just wouldn’t happen and to record a
well-deserved vote of thanks. On this web site the principle
we try to stick to is ‘A photo with no information remains just a photo, but
a photo with the who, when, where and why added
becomes a record of our life at Arborfield’.
In the following presentation we have the when, where and why elements
but we need the names and their intakes.
If you can help, please contact The Editor with any
information you can add, with the photo number it applies to. It will be much appreciated in the years to
come. Unfortunately, this year the
review is again somewhat truncated.
Mother nature and father time have combined to restrict coverage. ‘The Editor’ had to cut short his visit
again, so much of the added information is hearsay. The story is mainly told by the
photographs. Should any information be
forthcoming from contributors, the article will be updated with the new
material on a rolling basis.
