What was the first name of the nicest person / people you've lost touch with from primary schooldays?

I will start with Jane. Best friend for three years then her parents got jobs in another city. We wrote to each other for about ten years.

All three moved away when their parents split up and remarried. I didn't go to the same secondary school as the rest of my year group. It was the 70s so unless you had a address or phone number it was nigh on impossible to keep in touch

Susan, Alice, Wendy and Angela were my best friends.

Our least favourite 'friend' who I remember to this day was Julie! Shudders
