Dear Dave,
Since my last e-mail I have received a very positive response from other residents who will be happy to open their doors and put the kettle on!

Dear Dave,
Thanks for your letter regarding the annual re-union of the Goldings Old boys. This was read with great interest as over the years we have been here we have met a number of Old Boys and been enthralled by their tales of life at the William Baker Technical School.
In response to your request for access to “tread the floors of their youth” I can respond on behalf of apartments 1 and 3 to say that this would be our pleasure. I will speak to other residents to ask for their co-operation, I’ll let you know how I get on.
Please call me at any time should you require any information or assistance
I look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes

Dear Dave,
Thank you for your note you put through all our postboxes at The Hall.
I am sure The Hall Residents will be more than happy for you to visit as part of your annual reunion. Only last year I bumped into one of your “Old Boys”, Mr. W Knight, and showed him inside The Hall. At Christmas, he sent me a wonderful disk of photos he took that day.
I am copying in the key members of The Hall Committee and am sure that if a date is provided, at least one or two of us can be around to let you in for the visit. You might like to see one or two of the apartments which would have been particular areas of memory for you.
Best wishes.
D. A Goldings Resident.

Hi Dave & Mal,just read your script you have put on the web site about a visit to our x Home Goldings as I have been away for a few days when you put it on. I was so pleased when I saw what you have done, a Big Thank You.
P.S. Does it mean only old boys, or can families also be involved?

With many thanks to the residents of the Goldings Mansion and the positive response to my letter that I posted last week regarding a visit for the old boys around the Mansion on the next re-union (2010)day.Quite a few have responded with agreement, but they are asking others that also live there for their permission so their privacy will not be invaded without prior agreement,and I will give more details on the re-union invitations.I am hoping that well before the re-union that I have more details of the arrangements so that we can deal with the kind invite and respect their rights to privacy as Mr Macdonald (Governor 1927-45)and Mr Wheatley (Headmaster 1945-66) would expect of us!so if anyone is not displaying the official Goldings re-union identity badge on the day will not be allowed to visit (these I do every year which are given out at the re-union venue)So if anyone of you do not receive your badge,please contact the re-union team,Peter Drummond,Ann,Ellen and Brian Perrier,Mal or me to print one.
Arrangements for transport,parking, and times agreed will be given on this site and also on the re-union invite.
Many thanks to Brian Perrier who asssisted me with posting the letters.
P.S. Just remember they now live there and parking in the courtyard is part of there property,so I will arrange alternative agreement with the residents that doesn't upset them, but I am sure that anyone who is disabled they will allow us to drop off in the courtyard.
They are looking forward to your stories and escapades that we encountered at "Goldings"
