Cranbrook non-centenary dinner October 2018.

Dear Fellow Old Cranbrookians,

We had a delightful dinner in the upstairs private dining room at Big Mama’s Trattoria in Woollahra on Tuesday 30^th October. 

Overseas visitors Rick Chau from Canada and Tim Robins from Portugal were able to reconnect with other guests all talking, eating and drinking together for a rather long evening (we were last to leave the place near 11pm).  

Matt Sawyer has a long connection with the restaurant and we were looked after handsomely with Prosecco, beer, wine and excellent food, sharing entrees and each choosing second course from pasta to roasts and other Italian favourites. 

See pix below. We had apologies from Peter Richardson, Eric McCusker, Dave Gilray, Nick Back, John North, Dougall McDowell, Cyril Ratsaphong, Craig Tallard, Sam Yates, John Szetu, Alan Pearlman, Mark Darling, John Ashton, Richard Wild, Phil Wilson, Steve Mooney, Warwick Stuart, Andrew Bottomley, Rick Price, Mike Alexander and Richard Fox.  See some of their screeds below. 

There was a big gala on Hordern Oval for the school centenary a couple of weeks ago and our year was represented by Matt Sawyer, John North, Andrew Parsons, Andrew Howie and Mark Darling.  

Best wishes to all, near and far, Andrew Byrne ..
