Teenage photos (just for fun join in!)

Following an interesting thread about never have you ever... which brought to light that a lot of us dibbers were naughty in our younger years (Mr Tom-Morrow especially) I thought it would be fun if we posted photos of ourselves in our teens! I will start with this lovely photo of myself aged 15. I am on the left, with my best friend on my right. We thought we looked very cool.

I was so naughty it was unbelievable:-

  • Failed to attend school.
  • On bin day I could make good money by returning pop bottles.
  • In work at 15.
  • Running over the roofs on site.
  • Driving a 32 ton excavator at 15 because it seemed like a good idea.



And the list goes on and on

Oh, and disappearing to America for weeks on end!

Look at those cars! My mum was so disappointed in the cars when we went to US in 1992!

Tom what age did you actually stop attending school as the official leaving age was 15 back then.
I'd like to point out to our younger readers it was completely normal to be able to read, write and reckon long before secondary school, as Tom proves daily.

I started mitching off at 13 as my view was the Teachers were psychos and I detested them. Mind you they probably detested me!

So I started mitching every Thursday as that was bin day in our area. Then I expanded my area so Wednesday was another day off!
Then I decided only woodwork and metalwork with the odd Tech Drawing class interested me - that was the beginning of the end!

I wasn't actually expelled, I was told not to come back and would never amount to anything. Losers!

I expressed my interest in an apprenticeship and big companies were coming to our house for weeks due to the Labour shortage. I chose George Wimpey so went with them

Awesome apprenticeship scheme lasting 4 years.

Loving all these photos! I worked for Taylor Wimpey homes, selling new homes for a while, then McAlpinne homes, loved it.
