    I quite enjoyed 1972.....Bowie released his Ziggy Stardust album, and the highlight for me was.........
    Bobby Fischer beating Boris Spassky to win the world chess championship!

    1976. Left school, Pennywell Academy for young ladies and gentlemem, and had an apprenticeship to commence in september. Fantastic hot weather, dole money instead of pocket money (quilted) and to cap it all I was slamming a girl, with big walter mitties, love palace with my purple headed battering ram.

    1993.
    I met a 20 year old who fell in love with me, she was a stunner. Would have stayed with her but her dad was a green belt so I did a runner.

    So far in my short lifspan, this year is looking pretty good - SAFC are doing amazingly well, I can drive in a couple of months, I'm going to see Pink Floyd in May and I'm not failing all of my A-Levels!
