Let’s go back in time ..

you’re 15, it’s a Friday Night .. what are you doing???


Probably at a friends house drinking Skol and listening to psychobilly music

 

I wuz at the barfs firstly fa swimming training then water polo after then see what happens after

 

At the Youth club disco, mobbed up in one corner with the rest of the Mods, waiting for the third playing of Time For Action.

Vastly outnumbered by punks and stiffs, wondering if I'm going to get on the bus home in one piece.

 

In the Surrey tavern drinking double diamond and playing pool, the landlord was a top man

 

Double Diamond
Works Wonders, Works Wonders, Works Wonders.

 

Shooting stuff at Air cadets

 

Probably skinning up round the back of the shops drinking MD 20/20 or finger banging some poor lass

 

At 15 ogling Sophia Loren in stockings, then wearing a Cravat and trying to look cool drinking a Vodka and Lime at Lucifers.

 

Drinking two pints of Newcastle brown at the (can't remember the name of the pub ) in Bushey.

 

It would be 1983, so I would probably be at The school youth wing disco, getting *******ed on my dads home made pea pod wine and smoking benson and hedges.

 

Down the pub playing in the pool team even though I was crap at it. Been getting served for a year but got banned from the same pub for being underage when I had my 18th booked in it....

 

I am 15, its a Friday evening...……. being a good lad doing my gce homework then early to bed, ready for Saturday morning school and cricket or rugby in the afternoon. Happy days.

 

Bet you were a right barrel of laughs

 

How many did you get...GCEs

 

Listening to music with mates after Scouts

 

Playing football, unfortunately I never made the millions I thought I would. Have had both knees operated on my left hip has gone my ankle is still sore 15 years after someone breaking it for me but wouldn’t swap any of it.

 

Sitting in my room playing with a soldering iron, god what a boring tit. It got better later on

 

I was also in the scouts in Oz, I think it might have been a tiny bit different and this was early 70s , we had Cubs then scouts then venture scouts, then rover scouts. I was in the scouts till I was about 19 or 20 perhaps. I got to meet the governor of Victoria to receive my Queen Scout award in 74 /75. Brand spanking new uniform and badges, Maroon beret, short sleeved round collared shirt, new scarf and woggle. (Cue the wiggly jokes) new skin tight drainpipe trousers and three striped leather brown and yellow platform shoes . I looked absolutely fantabulous, or so I thought back in the day

Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,, who else was in then?
