He loved Thomas the Tank Engine more than life itself and would remember his Thomas the Tank watch for the rest of his life.
He was often seen in exotic locations such as Eastbourne, wearing the latest, trendiest clothes and hanging out with cool people like Uncle Nic
He took pleasure in the small things such as playing with his Uncle Claude's exciting pencil sharpener collection... these weren't just any old pencil sharpeners! These were working cars, working bingo ball mixers and working clocks that also happened to sharpen pencils! He loved them more than he'd ever be able to express.
He'd yet to discover cardigans are not known for their attractiveness.
A keen lover of cars, he liked to collect rusty old ones without doors.
Ahhhh, what a sweetie - where did it all go wrong!? :-)
ReplyDeleteHolmesdale school was my place of "education" for 5 years - and what a place! If the girls weren't pregnant by the time they were 15, they were bullied! And the boys had to be tough... as it was a rugby school. Now there ARE some happy memories there...
Anyway! If you want to help me to become a millionaire, can you visit my blog?
LOL... my Mum was pregnant with me at Holmesdale during her O Levels. :D Snodland, sure is a classy place! Gotta love it though... although I was not amused to hear the bakery had shut down!!!!!!!!!!!!
