Good luck hun....fingers crossed for you.

Thanks, you're right, I was just saying that...lol :-) but really that means a lot to me, thanksx

LOL......Lucia........i doubt that put your mind at ease.... but good luck........and i hope you get what you are hoping for.

Thanks Nick :-) That puts my mind at ease a bit. I always get worked up about results.

Lucia...........whatever results you get.......(i hope you've done well).........will reflect on how much effort you have put in..... I didnt try at all at school........found a lot of things too easy......so i thought.........until it came to exams.!! Like i said tho..........thats the past.......you can only look ahead...and if you havent got the results you wanted...try again..

Well I was very like Maz and a bit like Paul too. I was small, skinny, got called Marge Proops cos of my glasses and had no confidence or self esteem. Used to row with my parents cos they gave me little freedom yet as soon as my brothers were of an age to go out, they had all the freedom they wanted. Blossomed a bit when I left school and went out to work but what really changed me a lot was leaving home to work in a holiday camp for a summer season. Came back, then moved away again to leave a man, who came after me and we lived together for a while, but then we split and I ran back home to Norwich and parents. Got a rented house eventually and lived my life, always making my parents annoyed about things I did. Now my friends say 'But you were always the bold one' - it was all a front really.

I really do agree with that. If my exam results come out bad I'll have to find a solution. :-)

No..Lucia........you shouldn't............life is what you make it..........if you made a mistake yesterday....learn by it...... If i make a mistake at work.....its no big deal.......its done......i'll put it right. whats done is done........look forward......not backwards.. i still have good memories.......but thats all they are Life is for living...not thinking what if......!

I think that's a good philosophy because you can't dwell on the past.

what ever has happened is in the past...........and you cant change it......you can only move on.......... thats how i live my life now........

Indeed it does.

hard Lucia......very...........but life goes on you tend to ignore it and put on a brave face...... well......i did

Nick, that must have been hard for you

I lost my dad at 14 and my bro at 18........but apart from that i was like a dog on heat......... and had a great time.!!

Oh i was sweet... angelic .... thoughtful ... sensitive .... caring .. in fact pretty bloo$y wonderful !!! Am still confused as to why they chucked me out when i was eighteen !?!>!>???? Lol Sue xxx

Well according to my parents I was a right royal pain in the ass!! But I don't believe 'em !!! What's wrong with marches for CND and sit-in's (for who know's what now) and obviously being right about everything LOL Now? well!! just a wee bit of a pain inn the ass! Kaz :o)))

I hated school with a passion, only subgect i liked was Art,had a smashing art teacher who let me do what i wanted to do not what the class did, Then she left,an i went back to hating it,i was 14 then left at 15, in 1964

Depends who you ask... I think I was very good as a teenager. I looked after my siblings when Mother was working/studying and was very well behaved. I did rebel a bit but not as much as others.... But my Mother would say I was a nightmare.....

Hated primary school but enjoyed secondary school and college. Remember having quite a quick temper and often had rows with Dad over school/college homework. Was a bit shy (and still am when I meet people for the first time). Didn't dare speak out to defend myself with superiors and it still takes me ages to approach my boss if I have a complaint, but I'm getting better at it! Wasn't very confident. Margaret

A total nightmare sometimes, I'm told. A pain at school and an apprentice hippy. Gwynne
