    What’s worse is it’s for pupils who left between 1990 and 1995 - so loads of people I won’t know as I left in 1990!
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Doesn't sound too bad Paula, I left school in 1962 so my school reunion (never been to one if there even was one) would just be a group of old men going on about how kids these days have never had it so good.
    77 and counting, less of the "Old" call me "Mike"

    It’s hard to put this into words without sounding off ..... When I was at school I was really confident, was the girl who always had a boyfriend and got the best exam results in my year. There was never any doubt I was going to do well. Except my mind and body had other ideas and I’m now unable to work, struggle with social activities, in a wheelchair and very overweight. I’d rather leave my classmates with the memory of who I might have been than who I am itms

    Anyway, today went ok, I managed to get through it. I’m exhausted but I knew that would happen. Rest day tomorrow

    Having a retro day. Footloose followed by Ferris Buellers Day Off . Katie’s really excited because her new car is registered and she’s picking it up on Wednesday, lucky, lucky girl! And she’s off to Greece with her boyfriend the following week.

    Good for Katie, what sort of car has she got?

    Ferris Buellers Day Off sounds interesting I'll have to check it out after all it may be more interesting than Old Mike's Day Off

    Katie’s getting an Audi A1 (in white)

    Have you not watched Ferris Bueller Mike? It is an iconic 80s film - Matthew Broderick. Brilliant film

    I’m watching Ed Sheeran on Biggest Weekend, he really is an incredible songwriter/musician - he’s up there on a big stage, just him and a guitar, no band. Awesome
