This blog (created in March 2011 by Lucky) is about new entrants to the Colombo Medical Faculty of the University of Ceylon (as it was then known) in June 1962. There were a total of 166 in the batch (included 11 from Peradeniya). Please address all communications to: colmedgrads1962@gmail.com.

Lovely to see Nalin, Gompa and Suren youthful as ever after so many years. I am certain amidst the fun and frolic Lucky has 'sold' our Blog to our friends to be in the network and keep in touch. It's been a long journey since those days in the Faculty.

When I saw 1 comment, my head said it must be ND and my heart was hoping for a new face! It was indeed lovely to see our friends again at Lucky's place, which is one of two main HQs when we come to Sri Lanka. Senani's brother Voharatissa was with me at Royal. Strange how I always remember cars! His father used to come in a two tone Fiat (I think it was blue and white Fiat Millicento). It bothers me that I live in UK and I am yet to meet Suren Iyer here. Suren, if you are reading this, we must meet!

ReplyDeleteWhen you and I meet in London let us try to rope in Suren!! How about that?

Yes, we must ND! I shall drink to that. I hope you have his contact details.
ReplyDeleteAll that information is available in the Batch Directory that I developed and circulated some time ago.
ReplyDeleteLucky, that is the first place I looked but Suren's details are not there, only his wife's name is there.
ReplyDeleteYou may have looked at the older version. Suren didn't have a separate e-mail address earlier. I used to communicate through Sweeni. I have updated the Directory by including more contact information for Suren.
ReplyDeleteLucky. You were right. I have now renamed the directory in my records giving the date of latest revision in the name of the docx. I now have Suren's email address and will drop him an electronic line.
