I remember my year because my school was a CTC (most have been converted into academies these days) and it was basically a prison, so we all got a 5 digit identification number, starting with the year you started (99 for me) , and then three digits based on where your surname sat in an alphabetical list of everyone in your year
mine was 99169, nice
Get your own thread then.
No thank you, I do not care for threads.
what a journey
Used to always make us chuckle when they’d let us leave based on our birth month
January tumbleweed September four or five students wander out March half the fucking class ups and races out the door, myself included
if you’re at the meat tomorrow you’ll see i really do look my age irl
Yeah like Eps said, I think Feb birthdays were the oldest in our years? So I was March and then my best friend’s birthday wasn’t until the following Jan, and he was one of the very youngest
Conversely, my birth year plus 11 is 1997, but as a Novembaby I was 11 in August of 1998
Sadly I won’t be but I’m sure you’ll look great!
Class of 1990-1995 @ynot - solid, probably played in defence for the school team, decent sort @Raanraals - definitely had curtains, probably got wrecked on Calvados on a school exchange trip @bozo - an unknown quantity… until the year 11 leavers disco.
'95? I left school in '96. Maybe I was wrong with '90.
But the Calvados bit is correct.
Someone tried to start a fight with me at the year 11 leavers ball in fact. Apparently I had given him ‘cut-eye’ (Oxfordshire slang for a dirty look) six months previously at the Christmas disco.
I remember cause of 9/11 which I also remember
Left back, as in left back in the changing room more like. Actually I was a right back.
I did play for the school twice I think, although I did my knee ligaments at 14, so that was that.
I think every schoolkid in the 90s went to a Calvados distillery. I remember Richard Wright necking a dozen or so of the sample glasses and then having to go have a sleep at the back of the coach.
Glad he recovered and went on to be one of the truly great journeyman goalies of his generation
Reckon me and @roastthemonaspit would have hung around together smoking and listening to McAlmont & Butler.
Think this has a huge impact on your self perception growing up tbh
Especially people who grew up with birthdays in the summer holidays you entitled fucks!!!1!!1!1!!!
you can’t have a 5 year class!!! that’s like… half a decade or something!
