Looking at the comments people have made, most had mentioned whom they were still in contact with. It really hit home to me how important our school years are and that most of us carry friends through our lives that we made in those special days. Also, how wonderful Friends Reunited is as it does exactly as it says on the tin - of course, only if you want it to.
