EDITORIAL
Welcome to the January 2012 edition of the original Old Martinians UK web site
This web site went on line in July 1998 and was absorbed into the benefits offered by the re-established Old Martinians Association UK when they took office in 2000. We have now being going for over 10 years and we appreciate your support over the years and hope this will continue. You should know that the OMA UK Association committee have now gone on line with their own web site for the benefit of members of the UK Old Martinians Association.
This site is now appealing to a wider audience and hence we have removed the “UK” from the title logo. We welcome old Martinians wherever they may be and of whatever vintage. We are endeavouring to bring you some stories from the old days blended in with the things that are happening in our schools and their locations today.
We are striving to keep improving the site by choosing interesting stories and featuring the achievements of some of our past students. We plan to bring you news of what is going on in our old schools at this time and of the activities of the present students and of the happenings in the places we knew so well while in school. The schools continue to excel in their endeavours and maintain the very high standards that we have now come to accept. We include items from the local press which relate to our schools and pupils and the educational significance which is generated by them in the environment. I am amazed at the depth and breadth of the collaborative activities undertaken between schools.
I hope you will have a look at the Videos & DVD page.
In the main photo gallery, there is a random selection of photos which you will find interesting. These have come from various sources. You will also see photos of those who attended our recent reunions held at various venues.We would welcome any photos for publication. They need to be in jpg form for the ISP.

Our publishing schedule depends upon worthwhile material being made available through our own research and that which is offered to us by our contacts, readers and visitors. There are many occasions when this is not quite enough to fill a magazine, so we are unable to guarantee a full update as often as we would like. We will continue to provide our best that is possible within our resources. We need your help in this, so please do not feel shy to send us your memories of old times or adventures that you have had since leaving school or meetings that you have enjoyed with old friends or photos of your own activities. You can e mail to editor@oldmartinians.co.uk. using your own e mail provider. You can also post to the web centre address on the Home Page. All submissions will be acknowledged.
I must bring to your attention a delightful e mail note I received from one of our new registrants. Biswajit Sengupta class of 1966 Calcutta, is running a most interesting web site and blog at
