The Jones's are well and thriving in Rutland (that's a very small county in England for all you Scots). Gareth is a pensioner having retired from the RAF 10 years ago - he still flies but (alas) not Harriers anymore. Spurning the chance to fly jumbo jets, he completed a Warwick Business School MBA. He is now a director of a very successful healthcare company (yes on the dark side) which now looks after over 40,000 patients at home. Being the perpetual student, he completed a further IOD course and qualified as a Chartered Director last year.
Jenny contimues as a full time GP in Uppingham where she has been a principal for 20 years. Having been the first ever female GP in the practice, and the junior for 13 years, she now leads a practice of 5 female and 2 male (where did they go wrong?) doctors in a thriving rural practice. Her specialist interests include acupuncture and of course shopping. Gareth & Jenny celebrate their 30th anniversary next year - what odds on that in Freshers' Week 1971?!
We have 2 sons: Chris is 25 and a FY2 doctor in Newcastle; NIck is 23 and just graduated from Bath with a 1st Class Honours degree in Business (he's the sensible one). Both boys have no idea what they want to do in the future apart from continuing to come on sun & ski holidays with their parents.
We're always keen to keep in touch with old friends - we look forward to seeing everyone at Gleneagles!
