Re-union 2005
Astrid Connolly (nee Montford 48-56), who now lives in Australia, delayed her flight home via Denmark, so that she could attend the Old 4's reunion in London on 9th April, 2005. She met some of her contemporaries earlier in the day at The Royal Festival Hall, so that they could catch up with her news.

A new face at this year's reunion was Eve Ramon (nee Humblestone) 43-48, who gave a short talk about her early life as a magician's assistant, when she was involved in 'levitation' and 'cutting the lady in half in a box'!

Another Reunion Tea was held in London on Saturday, 5th April, 2003, and around thirty people attended with some different 'faces' from last year. Mardy Tyrer, who lives in Austria, normally comes to England in the autumn, but this year she decided to come in the spring to coincide with the Tea. Another 'new' face was Janet Kelly (nee Bailey, 50-56). Mardy and Janet are shown in the photos below.
