Newsletter for past alumni of The Abbey School, Mt. St. Benedict, Trinidad and Tobago, W.I.
Caracas, 30 of August 2003. Circular No.95
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Friends,
Let me start with a few lines from the Event. Further information is being received from those who attended, and shall be sent for your enjoyment.
I would like to include the list of assistance if any was taken, and a resume that I would like to include in Circular No. 96. So I ask the organizers to send it to me so that all recipients of the Circulars would be able to look for their friends, especially does that live overseas.

Hola Giovanni:
Que sorpresa tan grata. La verdad es que a través de Ladislao y la página Web de los Mount "old farts" muchos de nosotros nos hemos encontrado.
What a surprise. The truth is that through Ladislao and the WEB page of the Mount oldboys, a lot of us have been reunited.
Estoy en USA desde 1990. En ese año cuando estuve trabajando en Maraven como gerente de Geologia en Maracaibo.
I am in the USA since 1990. That year when I was working in Maraven as Geology Manager in Maracaibo, I looked into my crystal ball and it said to me: "get the fuck out of Venezuela because the future will be bien jodido". So I took my family and moved to Baton Rouge, Louisiana where I got a job at Louisiana State University as a petroleum researcher. I'm still here and occasionally do some consulting work for Venezuela. However, for the past three years, with everything so screwed up down there, that all I tell people is: "If you don't want to loose your shirt stay the hell out of Venezuela".
Christian lives in Oklahoma City and has been in the USA for the past 40 years.
Ese carajo tiene billete que jode y ya se jubilo. That guy has lots of money and has retired already.
Brian vive en Valencia, enviudo el ano pasado. Se quiere ir para la mierda pero no se decide para donde irse. Creo que esta pensando en Trinidad porque le encanta una negrita.
Brian lives in Valencia, widowed last year. He wants to go to hell but has not decided where. I believe that he is thinking to go to Trinidad because he likes Trini girls.
Urbano también se quiere ir de Venezuela, pero como no le gusta a las negritas esta pensando en irse para Dinamarca.
Urbano also wants to leave Venezuela, but as he does not like Trini girls, is thinking to go to Denmark.
Siempre te recordamos. Sobre todo cuando ibamos para tu casa en Pertigalete.
We always remember you. Especially when we went to your house in Pertigalete.
Estoy en contacto con Urbano, Peter Morvay, Pradita y muchos otros de los Mount Boys.
I am in contact with Urbano, Meter Morvay, Manuel Prada and many other Mount boys.
También tuve la grata sorpresa de un email de Csaba Jacobszen lo cual me contento muchísimo.
I have had a nice surprise when I got an email form Csaba Jakobszen, which made me very happy.
Que hay de la vida de Pepe Bracho? La mafia de Puerto La CRuz esta lentamente reaparenciendo.
What is the life of Pepe Braggio?. The Puerto La Cruz mafia is re appearing.
Cada año he ido para Venezuela o de negocios o de vacaciones. Pero voy para Maracaibo y luego para Maragarita.
Every year I have gone to Venezuela o for business or for vacations. But I go to Maracaibo and then to Margarita. I tend to stay out of Caracas as much as I can because I can't stand the traffic or the malandros. Urbano gets angry with me because I don't call him. But the truth is that every time I'm there he is traveling somewhere.
Áfter the "referendum"???? and after the situation returns to normal in Venezuela, I will come down for a visit. In the mean time, if you are in our neighborhood you are more than welcome to come to my home.
Un abrazo,
Donald
