Probaly looked like f***ing tubes aswell lol Who killed Kenny? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Behind more road accident conspiracies than InfoWars! f***ing hell ben I can't breathe!! A young lad a lot older than me , probably before I was born was ran over in my little town by a man in a car with a caravan behind whilst running over the road to see his mam leaving work whilst wearing a snorkel Parkel sadly he was left mentally handicapped and is still known to this day as lord Anthony. Many years later , he knocked into one of his mates in the pub and spilled his drink, his mate gave him the most savage reply I've ever heard "typical , last time you didn't look where you were going you destroyed that poor mans holiday" 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was part of my early teens as well, interspersed with paper rounds. Had a couple of milk yards quite local to me and you just turned up early (well early) and asked if anyone needed a hand. If you were efficient they would ask you to help on a weekly basis but if you let them down once, you were gone. Used to enjoy it and the cash came in handy. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scothunter 12,609 Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 Clarkes wayfinders with various animal paw prints edged into the sole. There was also a compass in the heal.

Accip74 7,112 Posted November 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 My first clearest memory of feeling really good in clothes was in the last year of primary school at the end of year disco. My Sergio Tacchini 3 button cardigan in lime green courted much attention. I thought "I'm the bollocks" 2 1 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
