He's just got the DVD of the mass and leavers ball and we had a good laugh at all the pics, its amazing how much they have grown up since year 7 to now

Oh yeah and he went on a 5 day trip to barcelona after his exams had finished and he had officially left school

We had a leaving do when we left St Christopher's in 1994.

We went to Mytton Fold at Langho......isn't it lovely for photos?

Of course, it wasn't like it is today. We just had a bath, washed our hair, put our glad rags on and our mums dropped us off and picked us up.

These days girls are having prom dresses that are like wedding dresses, spending all day in a salon primping and preening......spray tans, false nails, elaborate hair do etc.

They get picked up in a stretch limo like Madonna......all a bit much in my opinion.
