My best friend does and I recommend it to someone who kept asking me for sex(from school) but noone else from school knows much about the person I am now.
I might go look now

Speak to 2 of them on a regular basis and was usher at one of their weddings.
I'll still talk to a couple other ones on Facebook and if I see them in a pub or something but they were more like acquaintances. |

Nope, had a little burst of catching up when Friends Reunited and then Fakebook was the big things, since I left Fakebook then I’ve lost contact sadly. Moved multiple times and people move on in their lives, it’s a shame as there’s many great memories from those days |

Same here with exceptions to one, who me and hubby met up with her and her husband and had a foursome.  |

My main circle of friends is made up of 7 woman, 2 I met when I started dance classes at the age of 3, 2 I met in primary school and the other 3 in high school - we were all by luck at the same high school and somehow just gelled together.
There’s 30 years plus of friendship in that circle and I wouldn’t be without any one of them - I consider myself extremely lucky to have these woman in my life xx |

"Not unless you have a ouija board 
You're the only one living from your school days?"
Not quite.
One didn’t make it to 21, it never felt right when we met up after that, so lost touch with couple of others- then one of them died in a motorbike accident about 10 years ago. |

I literally have a handful of old school friends I still see on a regular basis.
I went to an all girls school and didn’t have a big group of friends so it wasn’t hard to still keep in contact with the ones I wanted too.
One has moved away up north but we make the effort to see each other twice a year.. either I go up to North Yorkshire or she comes down south to me in Kent.
We lost one of our group of girls in January to cancer so we all got together again to say goodbye to her… was very bitter sweet

One of my best friends I've known since before primary school. Kept in touch before mobiles and internet even though for the vast majority of the last few decades we've lived at opposite ends of the country.
Best thing ever is about 5 we moved within 10 miles of each other.

Out of my closest circle of friends, only 2 of the 8 didn't go to the same senior school. One of them I've known since I was 4, so yep, I still see them. |

I gave up on my school friends 30 years ago.
I was fed up with one way friendships where I was always the one checking in, helping them when they were in financial difficulty, supporting them through the loss of family members as well as being their nominated driver every time we went out together.
None of that was ever reciprocated and they were never there for me so I cut all ties.
One of them lives within ½ mile and we never speak. |

My school friends are still my mates. I moved as far away from my childhood home 20 years ago but I still see them 4 times a year and they still hang out once a week usually.
Found family are the best |

I’m still very close friends with a lot of people I went to school with. We’ve all disappeared for a couple of years at one point and came back but we all stay in touch and still go out together. |

Never had any contact whatsoever with any since the day I left...
....only recall the names of a handful - and of them, only one surname...
....likewise, teachers - remember the name of my grammar school head and the German master, but that's it... |

I can only remember the names of a few people I went to school with. I'm "friends" with 3 or 4 on the book of the face. I joined an FB group for one of my schools and I look at the names of those who where there when I was and still don't remember them. I remember very few teachers' names, too. |

I’m still in touch with one mate who I first met in junior school, but became friends with in senior school.
Also a couple more from senior school, but one lives a far distance away now. Another doesn’t seem interested in staying in touch for reasons unknown.
Most of my mates are from places I’ve worked and from common interest social circles. |

I've recently reconnected with a woman due to some overwhelming news that she told me about another primary school mutual friend.
The mutual friend very sadly died of cancer several years ago and unknown to me she had wanted to leave me some money in her will. I was absolutely stunned, overwhelmed, speechless and absolutely broke down in floods of tears, as I hadn't seen this mutual friend for many years. Her will was never carried out but I don't care about the money, I just needed to meet the woman to talk about our mutual friend.
Some things in life truly blow your mind, this was one of them.

My group of friends from high school are still my closest friends to this day, admittedly we lost a few along the way, but basically my friends have been the same people for 25+ years, not sure whether that’s a good thing or not though |

Still meet up with a mate, we've known each other since we were 4 or 5 years old. We meet up for a night out every month or so. There used to be three of us who had known each other from that age, but unfortunately one died following heart surgery three years ago.

There are some I'm still in touch with, who will always be my friend, but I can count them on one hand 
On the other hand there are a lot more who I'd happily punch if I ever went to a school reunion
