At Willi High it was Miss Mason and I think she will be a miss till this day. She was the headmistress and hated me. I was always in trouble and spent many a lunchtime in her office eating my lunch. She caught me climbing out her windowd she went mad. Nan Bryden might remember her. She was a bitch And a half and scared everyone in the school

Hi Gals Another thread about newport pictures this is amazing stuff What memories you all have. I was taken there by Cliff once and thought it was so cool so decided to go there by myself not long after. I remember catching the train (no ticket as usuall) with some of you girls and the stiching on my stove pipe jeans coming undone at the pictures when we got there and with the best of intentions on a repair job I ended up with a whole leg of no stitching and one skin tight .. I must have looked so silly. but I knew it was dark in there and no one could see me so it was ok lol I would love to know who ripped my jeans that day so who wants to put there hand up for that one...lol.. lol Confused Very Happy

yeah it could have been Nora as she would do something like that.. I pulled the other leg out by myself and when I got home I had to plead with mum to do the stiching again lol Embarassed Embarassed Embarassed
