BERNADETTE CROSSLAND (nee Ridgway) of 21 Abbeyfields, Beech Hill, Wigan, says: "This is an urgent last call for anyone who left St Joseph's School, Horwich, in 1982. We are holding a 20 year reunion on April 20, in the Pennine Suite of the Horwich RMI Club. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you are interested or just turn up on the night! The cost is £5, looking forward to seeing you again!" Bernie.Crossland@guardian-technical.co.uk

STEPH THOMSON (nee Banks) of Horwich is trying to organise a reunion of the top class of 1976 from St William of York RC Primary School, Nugent Road, Great Lever. I would like to invite both pupils and teachers to come along, especially Miss Mulroy and Miss Tuohey. Haven't set any date yet, just wanted to see how many people I could contact to see if it's worth organising a get-together. Some names that I can't seem to get any info on are as follows: Catherine Smith, Vicky Joy (went to live in Wales I think), Barry Cooper, Derek Franks and Thomas Brown. Please get in touch if you can help.Thanks.
