No, never ever took up debating, so Slater was outta the question for me....but did have one of the major roles for the school play though ("Tughlaq"). Originally, there were 5 of my cousins but 2 dropped out after class 11 as Auckland according to them was "too strict and they fed them only potatoes". LOL Only 3 of them returned for class 12 (the manange girls). My parents kept harassing me to go meet them every outing we got (which was every Sunday since I was a school prefect then), so I went to visit them twice the entire year!! hahahaa Your fete was pretty good too then. Sadly but honestly, we Cottonians were more into the Chelsea chicks and the St. Bede's girls were the holy grail. LOL No disrespect. BTW, Are you in contact with any Nep/Tib girls at St. Bede's from back then?
