Schooldays are the happiest days of your life.

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Tell me about it.
I’m currently on Recess for two months.
And I’m not a teacher.

Caretaker?

Local nonce?

Bart Simpson?

You must have had decent income to be mortgage free at 41, or did you save everything and never go out etc?

Or left money from relatives?

Also depends on value of the house. I'd rather owe 300k on a 500k house than be mortgage free in a 150k house.

 

[york away to this!]

I was just happy to get out with my arse intact.

Is that you, Sir?...

Moved to Nottingham for my last two and a half years of secondary school and wagged it pretty much every day. Eventually came to an agreement with the school that i could swerve most lessons (Ma was a teacher) as long as i played for the footy team.

Im sorry you (and yours) weren’t able to enjoy life the way I did at Radcliffe Primary, a year at Stand Grammar, then Ashton Grammar & Sixth Form.

Wasn’t all wine & roses, but the only scars I have from those days are the loss of a girlfriend to an asthma attack, giving away my U2 ticket (Manchester Uni, their first trip over!) to a different girl I fancied and my parents not really enjoying the fruits of their extraordinary efforts to get ahead.

I managed to “escape” most of the downside of the 80’s by being in Uni in the States, where Raygun was making Americans feel on top of the world and being a fresh meat Brit at an American Uni was like being in clover.

I have been very fortunate and I’m thankful for that.

Everyone i know was kicked out of Stand, including my brother and best mate.

I have happy memories of school, college and Uni. Must be a weirdo but was never bullied, enjoyed the education, loved the sport and apart from the odd bumming by the Headmaster it was pain free.

Was Jimmy Savile your teacher?

School was ok but real life has been fucking ace.
