Dear Friends,
Here is a short conversation by Rudi Singh and Glen Mckoy,
referring to the photo attached where Glen is at the beach at Isla de las
Mujeres
-----------------------------------------
Me thinks you doing this wrong.... you have to walk the beach on
your legs.... not your head. LOL
I jog the beach not walk hombre ha! ha1
Lol.... I guess as you get older you have to prove that you still
have it :)
Rudi I can still run faster than many young fellas,
The most I ever weighed in my life 134 lbs.
I don't excercise,
I did run on the Mount the 100 m and the mile, until I started to
play music then I stop playing sports cheers young grasshopper
Awright Nahhhh....
Take win.... :D
I smoke cigs, so I can't talk about health ha ha

Thanks guys for
helping catch up with those wonderful memories of the hill.
Great swimming experience but once was enough.
My expression shows that swimming the mighty
Orinoco-Caroni river crossing in one and a half hours was quite a challenge;
especially swimming against the current initially was only 5-6 km/hr but during
the last 30 minutes due to the current taking me past the finish point, the
return against the current to the finish was 8 km/hr +.

Hi Ladislao and
Nigel,
I met Sterling Hackett today, and man, this
is the first time since leaving Abbey . . .that's since 1974.
Nigel, just want to advise a correction for
your database.
You listed Zepherine Robinson as Head
Prefect for that year.
Actually Sterling Hackett was Head Prefect
(which I just reconfirmed with him) and the other prefects were Zepherine
Robinson, Junior Stuart, Joe Berment, David Johnson and yours truly.
Guys, you are both doing great jobs,
Thank you,
Chandra

When you telephoned some six months ago, I
understood you would be in Toronto on or about the time of your making a trip
to Trinidad.
If that were the thought I might have had a
telephone call or perhaps even a visit.
I understood you have a large family in
Toronto that would quite easily have occupied your very limited time.
Last September I remarried. My wife Sandi
and I went to Trinidad to visit with the family and fete during Carnival 1982.
Sandi, who is a Canadian, was overwhelmed. She wanted to stay on, but that not
being possible is anxious to return.
I did not have a chance to visits the Abbey School.
I was told that Phillip Nassief was in
Trinidad the week before I arrived.
Evidently, the political situation in
Dominica is such that Philip has large business interests in Barbados where he
spends a great deal of time.
Scipio Soodeen I believe has taken up
residence in Barbados where his family also now resides.
Recently, I was in Clearwater, Florida
helping a friend make ready for rental two condominium apartments.
I realized I wasn’t too far from the
Ferguson’s in Lakeland, but the repairs to the apartment took longer than
anticipated.
I appreciate the time and effort you are
taking to keep the clan in touch through OASIS and know the costs to you of
stationery and postage.
Please find enclosed my cheque for USD 10.50
as per your request.
Sincerely
Trevor
(I have hopes to hear from Trevor, and Philip whom I have
written, ed.)

Dear Ladislao:
I'll surely check the list of class 1958 and
help you with the missing data.
Do you by any chance have information on a
Mount boy called Lawrence Scott?
When in 1958 I was in Form V he must have
been in Form III.
I don't know if later he graduated at Mount
or elsewhere, for we never had any contact after I left Mount in December 58.
I'll appreciate your help in this matter.
Saludos y gracias por toda la información
enviada.
Ricardo Figuera
(Maybe L. Scott can clarify this, as he is on the mailing list
but no S.O.L. from him, ed.)

Ladislao: Buenos dias amigos del grupo. Alguien me pregunto ayer sobre
los diferente grupos de OLDBOYS ya que no sabia donde informarse. En los
momentos hay cuatro grupos donde recibo información en mi celular. Este
grupo MSB se creo para informar sobre la fecha de los almuerzos que teníamos
mensualmente. Y otros acontecimientos de información personal. En este grupo
están los que viven en Venezuela y podrían asistir a un almuerzo. El segundo
grupo en Venezuela lo maneja arturo zavarce y consiste de OLDBOYS y
corresponsales regados por todo el país para recopilar información de los
acontecimientos dia a dia. Arturo y otros oldboys se han esmerado en mantener
la información veraz. Aqui es donde puedes enviar todo concerniente a la lucha
por la libertad y servicio público.
El
tercer grupo es el creado por Salvador Coscarart llamado ABBEY BOYS, en
Houston. Este grupo trata de conglomerar información internacional y incluye a
muchos Trinitarios y otros. Esta enfocado a que los alumno se encuentren y a
la ayuda humanitaria como medicina y comida a los oldboys venezolanos en
necesidad. Se buscan sponsors para los envíos. El cuarto grupo lo manejan
los oldboys Trinitarios y se llama VENEZUELA RELIEF. Este grupo es netamente
humanitario y ha logrado mandar comida, etc. De Trinidad a Guiria como
medicinas a través de personas que vuelan a Venezuela.
En
ningún caso se desea que se incluya material xxx y no por lo sabroso sino
porque los celulares a veces son manejados por menores de edad, nietos y
sobrinos de dueño. Hemos perdido una buena cantidad de recipientes o colegas
por esta razon. Los sucesos de nuestro país crea una cantidad muy grande
de videos y fotos. Anoche borre 1000 archivos recibidos en el mes de
mayo. La mayoría triplicados. Sabemos la importancia pero usemos los grupos
según información Se me acabo el aliento y todavia me falta mandar los circulares
semanales. Ayudenme
04-06-2017 Ladislao: I shall translate the information I sent
Good morning friends of the group.
Someone asked me yesterday about the different groups of OLDBOYS
since I did not know where to find out. At times there are four groups where I
receive information on my cell phone. This group MSB was created to inform
about the date of the lunches that we had monthly. And other personal
information events. In this group are those who live in Venezuela and could
attend a lunch. The second group in Venezuela is managed by arturo zavarce and
consists of OLDBOYS and correspondents scattered throughout the country to
gather information on the day-to-day events. Arturo and other oldboys have
taken pains to keep the information true. This is where you can send everything
concerning the struggle for freedom and public service.
The third group is the one created by Salvador Coscarart called
ABBEY BOYS, in Houston. This group tries to conglomerate international
information and includes many Trinitarians and others. It is focused on the
students meeting and humanitarian aid as medicine and food to the Venezuelan
oldboys in need. Sponsors are sought for shipments. The fourth group is managed
by the Trinitarios oldboys and is called VENEZUELA RELIEF. This group is
clearly humanitarian and has managed to send food, etc. From Trinidad to Guiria
as medicines through people who fly to Venezuela.
In no case do you want material to be included xxx and not
because the tasty but because cell phones are sometimes handled by minors,
grandchildren and nephews of owner. We have lost a good amount of recipients or
colleagues for this reason. The events in our country create a very large
number of videos and photos. Last night I deleted 1000 files received in the
month of May. The majority tripled. We know the importance but let's use the
groups according to information. I'm out of breath and I still have to send the
weekly circulars. Help me
07-06-2017
Alexander Garth: Guys food stuff arrived in Guiria safely awaiting Frank to
pick up and distribute let me know what can be done to improve the process of
distribution in the future Regards Garth...
07-06-2017
Coscarart Salvador: Good to hear all is working good.

Joseph Habib: Now that's how we say good morning.
