Same year as me, which school in Tyldesley?
The one & only Garrett Hall where I also went on to work & (more importantly) coach the school football team for several years from 2002
If you’re talking secondary schools I went to Bedford High, up Leyth
I was at Garrett Hall too. Always remember Mr Lowe smoking in the changing rooms before P.E. he didn’t take any crap that fellow, and really good at coaching.
Nope. Thatcher only got in in 1979, don’t forget.
I started school in 81. Must’ve been 81 or 82. I was 5 or 6.
So you can’t possibly have remembered it, can you? :S[/quote]
Yes I can. It happened how Tyldsley said.
If you can think back to when you were 5 or 6 and remember stuff in great detail thas a better Mon than me, Gunger Din.
Actually ABL I CAN remember things in great detail from when I was that age. I can remember well the names of all the kids in my junior school.
But where I’ve put my glasses now, or had for dinner yesterday – well that’s a different story :(
Thatcher may have a lot to answer for, but she did us a favour in our school stopping the milk. It was either frozen solid or left in the sun all morning that is was off and stank the class out.
And it was only ever the swot or ‘milk monitor’ who got to stick the straws in.
Did we used to get a free “watch out there’s a Humphrey about” sticker on the bottle or was that something else?

True that.
I remember we had gas fires in our classroom, and so the milk was brought in with a layer of ice on top, and then warmed up by the fire so it semi boiled, but with a layer of ice still there.
Parents these days would be suing. But it did us no harm (phrase copyright of the Daily Mail)
Funny intit how you can start a thread talking about tickets sold, and ending up talking about milk? :woohoo: Wo’d er thowt.
bbc north west tonight apolagise for last nights mistake, wigan have actually sold around 22 thousand and have 10 thousand left

I was at Garrett Hall too. Always remember Mr Lowe smoking in the changing rooms before P.E. he didn’t take any crap that fellow, and really good at coaching.Same surname as me too – although no relation!!
Who are you by the way? I’ll take a stab that your surname is Graham as I used to bump into him @ Springfield Park quite a few timesYeah still goin although not as much of a match goer these days wi the ol’ reffing
I’m not a teacher. I was in charge of all the money/building/non-teaching stuff. All the old teachers had left by the time I started although miss busby & mr Lowe hadn’t been long gone. Place hadn’t changed a bit since our days but we completely gutted it during my time
