baw 4,360 Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Best time of your life. Can anyone remember the school bag they had? Started school with one of those brown satchels but soon got a red tartan duffle bag. I thought it was the dogs bollox hole one side, pull the straps it shut, slung over shoulder aged 5 with the swagger can mind stealing vw badges first year, beastie boys were big then. Grolsch tops in the laces, you'd forget about them and play football, ooooft. Snow ball fights were 1st & 2nd year v's the rest collecting birds eggs lunch time, had a ring box with cotton wool to keep them in. Conkers were great too, trying everything from soaking in vinegar to baking them to get an advantage lol. Good times good times, what's your memories? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LaraCroft 863 Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Had a dark blue buckle close satchel - still got it ! We had a locker at school so didn't have to carry much about with us, so I never grew out of using it. Bunking out of school to go and see Red Rum open a local bookies shop Cross country runs in the winter - if you were in the last 10, you were not in time for the warm water in the showers - a very good incentive to run faster the following week.

baw 4,360 Posted February 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Cross country runs........ Just had a shiver down my back, f***ing hated them. I hated running, never seen the point in knackering yourself for nothing. I'd run all day after a football but to cross a line........ Na 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
