Pulau Tioman

Thanks to Ken Wildon for sending in these pages and photos, he writes - Back   in   the   summer   of   67   a   group   of   us   from   St   John's   went   on   a   Geography   field   trip   to   the   Island   of   Tioman,   about   25 miles   off   Mersing   on   the   east   coast   of   Malaysia.   Most   of   us   had   just   finished   our   A   levels   and   were   making   the   most   of   our new found freedom, while just a few were there to further their education. Tioman was known at the time as the island used for location filming for the 1950's musical South Pacific. While   we   were   there   we   decided   we   would   climb   the   island's   highest   peak,   Mount   Kajang.   The   story   of   that   ill-fated expedition was subsequently published in Summit Magazine and duly forgotten. Confined only to dim and distant memories. Until   earlier   this   year!   Following   the   5th   Chandos   event   in   March   Marilyn   W.   recalled   seeing   the   article   fairly   recently. Louise(?) Reyniers (her maiden name eludes me but I'm sure Marilyn will remind me!) still had the magazine!

The choir again, this time in full regalia. L to R: Linda Fowley, ????, myself, Caroline Henderson, Mike Scott, Charlie Else and George Knibb.

Linda Fowley. Linda and I managed a few letters to each other after our return to the UK, she was last heard of living just outside Glasgow. My memories of Linda are of a very intelligent, pretty and KIND young woman.

Taken outside St Johns church. L to R: ????, ....Cogswell, ????, and Yvonne Williams. The reason I know that Yvonne is in the picture, is because we used to be married!!! Yvonne lives just outside Cambridge.
