My Dear Sr. Brothers, Nigel & Ladislao,
On behalf of the Club, we are seeking out the Last Boarders who attend the mount, they are of great importance, an answer to a puzzle, to a question, the Club must solve,
I am urging all younger brothers of that time, to start sending all information to the Circular, Nigel or myself, about whatever you remembered, before the doors of the Castle was closed, in 1986?? who knows??
We must find this Last Brother, who flew off that mountain, he is the answer, to complete the Great Circle, according to the book "The King of Hearts", after the Rights of the Knights, are Transferred on the 11/11/11@11am, we must know the names of the Heirs of the Realm, The Club, the Book, the Chest.
In order to open and read Chapter 12, of the Book, we must have 2 names from the End, as the Mount approached it Demise.
Thanking all in advanced for their co-operation and assistance on this urgent matter, Long Live the Realm, Long Live the Mount, Long Live the Club.
Wishing the best of the best, this world has to offer, for all my brothers,
Yours Faithfully,
Glen McKoy@ pax2u.

My Brother,
Ian Gianetti, was one of the last.
He is six years younger than I.
I left in 1979 so he had to have left in 1986 (or 85) genks1@bellsouth.net
or he may remember names.

Not to forget that if the Mount closed suddenly and unexpectedly the last boarders might not even know they were the last.

Dear Shaun & Ian,
Thank you for your lightning speed reply.
Many of us had brothers on the mount; this is what I was looking for, some one brother or son, in this case.
I must thank you for this; it’s our pleasure to know your younger brother.
We will have to ask Ian, a few questions, if that is o.k. with him, and what feelings Ian has about that school he attended.
As you know I am in contact with one of the oldest brother's David De Castro, he remembered in 1943 or 44, Arawaks working on the stone walls, at the mount.
We would like Ian to write a story of what he remembered, and this will mean so much to us, to know how it was in the end, who were with you, at that time??.
Please send to Ladislao, No rush, take his time, we will be here for a long time,
We will contact him privately.
Shaun, you can request his name, be added to the Cosmic Circle, The Club, if you think he is ready, ha! ha!
Later mis amigos.

One of Ladislao's last Circulars indicated that the school closed in June 1985.
It's a date that I have been hoping to find.

Circular No. 375, The Abbey School MSB

Hi Ladislao,
The blogs are no problem.
And, as you probably already know, once the reader goes to any one of the blogs, there is a link to all the others in the right hand panel.
So,every one of your circulars published since 2001 are available on one page:
Setting up meetings in Trinidad is an impossibility.
Trinidadians are afraid of meetings.
Or, maybe they are just afraid of making the commitment to be present for a meeting.
It's like having an appointment to go to Bobo's office when you were 12 years old.
The way to do it is to invite them out to drinks or a dinner.
It is expensive, but, that way you have a good chance of them coming out.
And, you can always pick a Chinese restaurant!!
All my meetings nowadays are in restaurants.
Keep well for the new year.
Don

Dear Don
One more Blog spot, when shall it end??
I hope to live out our president´s election; he wants to be on for more years than Fidel.
No luck as to the visit to TT, lot of meetings requested and few return replies.
So I told Gordon that I prefer to postpone for a further date, maybe when you go next time.
Furthermore he had a few urgent meetings and I would have been an additional load.
God Bless
Ladislao

Thanks, Ladislao,
I take it you still plan to send out No 374?
Or, did you already send it out, and I missed it?
Keep well,
Don

Circular No.380, The Abbey School MSB

Hi Ladislao,
Not sure what you mean by "have not acknowledged" the Circulars.
I acknowledge all of them in the best way.
They are posted to the blog within half an hour of my receiving them:
http://abbeyschoolmtstbenedict2011circulars.blogspot.com/. Visit and see.
I am trying to get readers to respond to the questions you pose by making comments on the Blog.
So, I try to make a comment myself from time to time.
It would be good if you could make a comment yourself, whenever you discover something you should add to one of the Circulars.
We are well, and hope you and yours are too.
I am teaching in the High School three half-days a week, and running a legal aid clinic another three half-days as well.
I am also engaged by the Governor General of St Kitts and Nevis to act as chairman of a Board of Assessment to try to work out the fair compensation to be paid to the owners of a property that was compulsorily acquired by the government.
That is very periodic, and does not take up very much time in St Kitts at present.
Keep well.
Don

Hi Ladislao,
I am going for a walk at the opposite end of the country at 6:00 tomorrow morning.
The drive will take 4 minutes and 30 seconds.
If I drive slowly!
