WHAT WERE YOU MADE TO DO WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG
 
When i was young I was made to go and do the washing at the bag wash on a Saturday. Used to hate it. I was also made to go and buy coal from the lamp oil shop using my younger brothers pram. Life was so unfare being the eldest.

The laundrette, flippin nightmare dreaded weekends cos I knew I had to do it. Also being the eldest having to look after my sisters and take them everywhere with me. If one of them was cheeky to a neighbour, I would get rollocked for it. So unfair >:(
