Not going to university would be mine... Left school at 16 to get out into the real world, when I had the grades at GCSE to stay on for A levels and go to university.
Don't regret the not getting the degree bit, just the experience of going and making close friends for life. Always envied people who have those memories and friendships... People close to me told me I should go, even when I was 19 or 20 and I thought I knew best... |

It's over-rated, Clarky
Nowadays it's better to build up experience rather than a £30,000 debt. |

It's like The Twilight Zone in here sometimes.

That's what I thought at the time, but now I'm not so sure...
All my memories as a 16-21 year old are being in a 9-5 job with the odd bit of fun at the Xmas parties |

Yes, but all that time you were learning to deal with a variety of real people.

Having my dad sectioned and put on a locked ward. Two days later he was dead having been given a powerful sedative in the night because he was being disruptive. Officially pneumonia

Blimey Slippy, I lived in East Dulwich for 20 years until May! I wasn't a regular at the Hat & Dog, but we've probably clocked each other.

Christ, that is harrowing Dobbo. I tried to do the same for a good pal of mine but his doctor told me it was none of my business. Six months later he was dead. May I ask if it was alcohol related? (no offence whatsoever if you would rather keep it to yourself) |
|
By:
That is harsh, my fathers ill at the min and if he deteriorates its a tough decision on whats best for him.

By:
That is a heartbreaking story Dobbo, I can only imagine how distressing that was for your Dad, you and your family.
Stevie, I still go to the East Dulwich Tavern and The Palmerston in Lordship Lane. The latter does a really decent Sunday lunch. |
|
By:
Slippy, I was just off Lordship Lane. Used the Palmerston a lot a few years ago. Didn't go drinking much in latter years, but went to the CherryTree/New Hamlet when I did, mainly coz I knew Tony. I thought maybe you might have been part of his poker school!
