Skool reunion tonite.

[Tashyboy]

So what do you say, and what do you not say.

Things ave already decided not to say is " God your fat, bald wrinkly, or all three". but there must be some kinda etiquette.

Quite looking forward to it.

I must of been a bit of a saddo at Skool, coz when I left I went round all the teachers and got there autographs and ave just found the book.

Mr Hills nickname was "Basher" he was a maths teacher that played no 8 at rugby. No one messed around in his class. He wrote, " May you never be bashed again" Mr Hill.

Just make sure that you refer to yourself as Tashyboy 👍🏻

Just play it by ear. When I went to one, there were some people there that were the biggest mickey takers around at school but had somehow morphed into dullards over time. Others that were insular, and not always in my circle of friends have changed and become gregarious and full of jokes and stories. Some of the teachers were not as I remembered. Some in a good way, others not so.

If you used to fancy them the question would be "are you married? " and if they say yes the question would be "are you happily married?"

Must admit id have no interest in going to one , the ppl i realy got on with im still in touch with 30 yr later , the rest , meh no interest

Well it was a fantastic night. Walked through the door it was rammed and I hardly recognised anyone. Part from pals who I have kept in touch with.
A few pints later and everyone was mixing.
Had a right good laugh. The sands of time have been kinder to some than others.

Not really,and not that I had noticed, if anything the knobs are still knobs. Wife's cousin, who I knew really well but at school didn't know they were related as she went to a school four miles away. Was telling next door neighbour he was goin at five o'clock. He never turned up. But he has always been a bullying bull******** liar. Not changed one bit.
A best mate at school got married yesterday or the day after reunion, he said three months ago al send an invite. He never did. When he left another pal was a bit narked that he had not invited his pals. Wedding pal is a bit of a ladies man and in the nine years with his new wife he has seen a dozen others. He was exactly the same a school. A likeable rogue. But not changed
Some of them have matured into stunning women, others just looked like they hadn't made an effort. A lot were born and will die in the village. The beauty of moving away 25 yr ago is that I Met people I have not seen in Thirty years. Others see people every week.
Ironically two women that organised it, one never turned up, she fell the day before and broke some ribs. She runs a farm, and has always wanted to. Well you would if you were from Manchester. Oddly enough, her dad and mine emigrated from Manchester as they both worked at Bradford pit, so sorta stuck together for a couple of years. I got to know Helen really well.
