Re: What did you get up to when you were a kid?

I blame my sister for my badness- she used to nick my dads marlboro's & we'd smokem down at the oldfolkshome wen i was 8! It went worse from then on. I was so bad later on, i was expelled from Hollins & did a runner from the next. It was a snotty boarding school- far too posh for me, besides, they wouldnt let us play with the boys.

Oh, my goodness Expat, didn't realise that !!! At least got me intake of protein I suppose. Glad don't have to wash the bugs and maggots off the lettuce leaves anymore at any rate.
