Were you good in school either academically or at sport?

[Daz_Blue]

David Watts wanted to be like me ;)

Him from Eastenders ?

The older I get, the better I was.

 

[Damocles]

Was pretty average in both. Most of my school time was spent looking for ways to wag it

Him from Eastenders ?

Heathen!

 

[Tuearts right boot]

No and no. Got an O level in the language I speak, was dumped in D set at rugby but made a rather fetching enamelled ashtray in metalwork. Shit hot at catering college though despite being expelled, although that was rescinded after 2 weeks.

Hated school,spent a lot of time and effort in being a pain in the arse and not going.

Yep and yep but fucked about and wasted it really. Good times though.

Had a brain but didn't use it half the time, just did enough to get by.
I was in the football, rugby and basketball team for my year and the year above. Did athletics for the school in comps which was the 100m and long jump.

 

[manimanc]

Underperformed appallingly at school. Too easily distracted, especially by booze and girls when I was in sixth form.

Did they have biros back then or was it quills dipped in ink?
Serious question by the way.

I won school prizes in English, History, Sociology and RS. Left with 9 GCSEs and 4 A levels.
I played tennis, hockey, netball and volleyball for the school.
If I'd have applied myself I could have been brilliant :-/
