Yes Philip I too enjoyed viewing the photos.
I must admit that I cannot identify most of the participants except those I have met over the past 30 yrs.
 
We have to be thankful to you and the others for having organised it.
Kamala.S(nee K) Siron and myself were to come but health issues became the stumbling block.
It was saddening too to learn of all the batchmates we have lost.
 
Bye
