This photo was taken on my last day at school which would have been late May, 1990. Although we still had to return for our exams, it was the last official day that we had to actually go to school for lessons. Three of the girls in this photo I still see regularly (indeed avid Flashback Friday peeps will recognise them from my entry last week regarding that hen night!). I am the one on the far right!
In typical end of school style, I had an egg cracked on my head by some annoying boy called Steven Gardner and had to try and wash it out in the sink in the girls toilets which was not easy as I didn't have any shampoo! I was not impressed!

could quite easily have been one of my school photos, loving the big floaty skirts!!

Hahaha...Brilliant! We dressed up as st trinians on our last day, got hauled in to the heads office who told us we looked like a bunch of whores! Good grief...I nearly fell over as I didnt think we looked that bad, lol.

ReplyDeleteLast day of school was always such a crazy time...but egg in your hair...yuck!!
ReplyDeleteBloody Steven Gardner! ;) There was plenty of them at my school too!
ReplyDeleteI love looking at your FF posts as we are the same age so it has just reminded me of my last day at school. I have tonnes of photos like this too :)
ReplyDeleteDid you do the 'signing school shirts' thing too?
xx
No we didn't do the shirt signing thing we pinched some school blank text books and got everyone to fill those in instead. Still have mine at my mums! X
ReplyDeletePains in the arse weren't they? :)
ReplyDeleteah the school days, good times! How are your boys doing? Is B jealous at all?
ReplyDeleteI love these School Leaving photos! I don't think I have anything from that time of my life. If I do, it's in a box in America somewhere! Thanks so much for linking up again lovely! ;)

Why do boys do that? do they think it's funny? Is it a desperate 'pulling a bird' trick?
ReplyDeleteGreat flashback and nice to hear you're still in touch with a few girls, I have reconnected with a few mates through Facebook and we've met up to, nice to swop news after 25 years or so
