Nice blog...sorry for the randomness of this email but having seen your name on my friend Dan's blog site i just had to say hi!
I saw your website and was astounded that i knew you many years ago! Not sure if you remember me or whether u just got pictures of a small chubby girl who lived in St Peters Parsonage...
Lol well thats me...but im now grown up (ish)
I have the pleasure of being at the same uni as your brother! All very exciting!
Well again apologies for this but hope it may lighten your day, keep up the good work at St Peters!
Kat
Wow! Rich and Kat know eachother!
Rich, who is your brother? Maybe I know him.
Small world indeed...
It's a small world after all! ;-)
Yes, I remember you Kat (although - obviously only as 'Kathrine') how cool is that?!! I'm no longer at St. Peters, but Alan and Mum are still involved...
And yes, Dan - my brother is Sam Barber, just started something psychologyish. I think I also may have been to your church (now that you mentioned it!) a few years back. One of our other friends from Edgware - Efe Avon Nomayo - was studying at Leicester and we made a few visits to see her...
oooh, how exciting. Yer my name has evolved somewhat...changed from the little girl with freakishly short hair and flowery summer dresses to a ... minging student...mmm.
Well glad to meet u again! Maybe see you soon
Kat
Yeah I know Efe (or did). We played in bands together a few times at Holy T.
Don't think I've met Sam, but I'm sure I will do at some point.
Crazy stuff.
An enjoyable read, my friend. I also did this thing on my blog, it was fun, thanks for suggesting.
Want to know about small world? I'm searching for something completely unrelated, and lo and behold I find this site...with my name!
Dan-so you're doing/were doing relay work. All the best.
Rich - Long time no hear. Heard you've moved to Ealing....why?
