I know it's difficult to believe but there was a time, (before you were born, little ones) when there was no internet at all. People wrote things down or typed them up on rubbish computers and walked over to the bookcase everytime they had cause to look something up. But one thing you couldn't easily look up was the past. People got on with their lives, sometimes pausing from carpet-beating and brass-polishing to wonder about their old flames or playground enemies, but accepting that bygones were bygones. How things change.
As Jaci Stephens says in this piece where she traces a series of old schoolmates through Friends Reunited: "The past is just a mouse click away". I've found a few old classmates on the internet in recent years, and in my experience the friendships that have been reignited are often not the ones you expect. Have you ever been tempted to wreak vengeance on your old enemies, or rekindle an old flame?
