39. Mrs Collinson (mrs colliwobbles) was head teacher at the time. She could give The Freak and Vinegar Tits off Prisoner Cell Block H a run for their money. Terrifying!
I'm so glad you didn't, mate. And I'm glad you've said it on here. I know it's a cliche but nothing is worth doing yourself in for. I was ready to go (die) and am so glad I didn't. Am glad things are looking good for you. Keep talking, pal. Keep talking
Pleased thats off my chest so thanks, could never have said that to anybody else I know, thanks for your honesty
Life can be dark sometimes and its hard to shake it off. Lost a good family friend who struggled for years. Its sad.
Na mate. There was Mr Brazil, Mr Applebee and Mr Beecroft amongst others. i started in the junior bit and briefly to the seniors before I moved to North Hull. it was literally the term before Peronet Thompson opened.
I'm glad you've talked mate. That's all that counts. It really does help, us blokes talking. If you ever feel low again, tell us on here. I know I will
Was Mr Brazil the smooth mo fo with a sol glo Barnet. Used to wear tight Fila shorts and Sergio Tachinni tracksuits? He came just after I left I think.
He was the PE teacher, yeah I went to Dales last year in my car. It looked tiny! One half seems to be a boxing club now. The other is an arts academy I think? Anyway, it was all A Team and Airwolf at the time and playing in the squares inbetween Kettlewell, Arncliffe and Trawden
Birthday present from my amazing girlfriend this year is a few days stay in Grassington. Where I get taken around all the award winning real ale pubs there. All drinks and expenses paid for! Can't wait!!
I lived on Rishworth, just around the corner. My lad played at Dales last year and I agree, it looked a lot smaller than I remember. The North Ferriby lads had a bit of a shock playing the locals, saying that they were probably the best behaved team we played last season. A really decent bunch.
I drink a bottle of wine every day. Sometimes I have a couple of cocktails and half a bottle of wine. Sometimes I drink a couple of cocktails and an entire bottle of wine. I very rarely drink beer. In part, I drink medicinally, to dull the pain in my knee, but mainly I drink because it makes life easier to deal with. I should probably exercise more. Oh well.
When we were little, Trawden was like visiting the Andes. Didn't venture far from Pennine Way ha. The double hill on the Dales ground was always great for finding ripped up porn mags tho
As a previous resident of Alderley edge, it has **** all on the crown on Holderness road (my old local) or Pepi’s on a bank holiday... better than Ibiza that place
To be honest, until recently I've drank the equivalent of 10 pints a day beer/cider. Not good. But I've cleaned my act up and am enjoying life much more. Incidentally, re the Allams, we both had issues and I apologise for my part in things. Hope your knee can be sorted sometime too
Got up to some real shenanigans on those hills. I was like a leopard in that long grass, a natural predator. I appreciate that makes me sound like a pest but it’s the reality of those heady days of the mid eighties.
