I have one friend from school who I've known since I was 12. She's my oldest friend, but not my best friend!
I was very a sporty, shy, skinny tomboy at school. I usually had 1 best friend and was happy to hang around with that one person. One of my worst memories was getting into a fight with a boy at school (one of those ones where everyone crowds around chanting "Fight! Fight! Fight!"). It was so out of character for me but it kinda just spurred up. I won though. Hahahahaha!

funny memory: after weeks of abuse off my teacher i cracked and went up to her and called her ignorant #'!% and if that was her way of teaching us kids then god help us!! oh and having a farting competition with my friend on the wooden desks we sat at!!
worst: in primary school we had a teacher, she was a nun "she basically thought she was still living back in the 1930's" and one day i didnt have my homework she slapped me in face and i fell back and split my head open, nice eh?
Kids today dont know how good they got it!!!
Still see some of my old mates though!

Marched to beat of own drummer who had awful sense of rhythm/the brains behind any trouble/rebel without a clue/ opinionated/arrogante/bright/'could do better on all reports.
In touch with two people, one am very close to, just came back from venice with them.
Funny memories = Being disciplined by science teacher who told my folks she was putting me next to a hard worker for the rest of the year so I spent six months sitting at her desk. Refusing to take off a cruifix as it was a catholic school and the outcry that ended up causing (see rebel without a clue).
Worst was the uniform and pretty much everyone there.
Best was leaving and going to a completely differetn college to most of them. Although the getting my friend to capture and let lose a massive spider in maths class was pretty good... mass hysteria in ten seconds, ah girls schools, gotta love 'em.

I loved Primary School - was loud, funny, popular played football everyday and got on with everyone.
I hated Secondary School - (started 3 months later than everyone else) was quiet, timid, school was full of rude boys and girls that thought they were gods gift. teachers were sh!te too.
I still talk to a lot of the girls that i was good mates with (mainly towards end of school years) and the other odd few people.

Im still in touch with the 'geek' who i went out with when i was 17. It didnt last but we got chatting when friends reunited started and although we havnt seen each other since college we are good friends and chat often.
My best mate was in my class at school and we have been best friends for 21 years now (crikey i feel old). we would get into all sorts of scrapes even though we were meant to be the well behaved ones at college, having come from a convent school lol.
I was the plain jane of the group really, always the one trying to convince others that the latest idea of 'borrowing' something from the heads office wasnt such a good idea. It was usually because i was the slowest runner and was always the one that got caught and questioned lol

Primary School my report says the darling of the class, gets on with everyone espacially the boys :-)
Middle School - Always the one the teacher picked to look after the new arrivals
High School - Could hang out with anyone really, wasnt in the sad group, wasnt in the popular group either.
Best memory � So many but the nits tits and naughty bits lady, where my mate dared me to ask �what if the string broke� then I spent the rest of the lesson stood next to her trying to pull the string of a tampon :-)
Worst Memory � Wetting myself in assembly (I was in primary) and having to wear some huge blue knickers from the head teachers cupboard.
and my best friend is someone I went to Middle School with.

I still keep in touch with my best mate from then. He hasn't moved out of the town so its good to keep in touch with your roots.
I loved school and was an unbelievable swot. Sad but true.
Best memory - Playing in goal for the school. It was ace walking through the school after a victory. Football was taken very seriously there so we were treated like gods. :).
Worst memory - Being bullied I think. The guy was a complete d*ck and took great pleasure in just punching you in the face for no reason. Only stopped when I hit him back and put him down. That and the rest of the football team backing me up.

I would love to go back to school, although I couldn't wait to get away from it when I was there.
My best friend now has been my best friend since my first day at Secondary school. We'll be mates forever. I still see two of my other friends occasionally, as they moved away, but we're all very close.
My worst memory has to be the feud we'd have with a group of girls from another hall (the school was made up of four different buildings). They were absolutely vile, spitting at us outside of school. One of the them once punched me in the face on the bus home and I did nothing. When I see her now, though, she always smiles and says 'hello'. Cow.
I had such fun at school, though. My favourite memory was when our Food Tech teacher had to leave the class for a moment. Then a food fight started. Well, not just food; spoons and washing up liquid, too. Luckily for us because it was our last week, she laughed and said, "Oh, you little barstewards!"
Looking back on it, I've never laughed as much in my life. :o)

Cant remember much about primary school to be honest.
I hated Secondary school, skived off a lot and usually got caught, rarely did my school reports find their way to my parents, they usually were sailed out to sea whilst passing the sea front on route home.
When we skived off of school, we usually went straight to Dawlish Warren golf course, where we would search for golf balls and we would always find loads often while they were still in play lol, we would then take them to school the next day and sell the to our Head Master, a keen golfer!!
We would hide out in a huge underground air raid shelter where we have a fire burning in the grate, we were always amazed that no one ever seemed to come and investigate when seeing the smoke, as it was in the grounds of a very large reputable hotel. I was a bit unruly at school but never got into bullying really or hurting other people, just a little naughty sod.

I was asked to leave at the age of 15, I wasted all my school years messing about, hence the reason I am so thick, but I loved going to school for the social side, the lessons got in the way, I am still in touch with my first ever girlfriend, and a few others I went to school with, just wish I had listened more,
I would say that I was an intelligent and social person, but not a member of the �gang� as such. I couldn�t abide gang culture but had many friends. Met up with them all a few years back and realised that I had nothing in common with them. They haven�t moved on or grown up and lacked any capacity for intellectual or stimulating conversation beyond how many times they have been married/number of kids by different women, what car they drove and if they owned their own house. I was the only one of the gang who went to university and carved a successful career. Conversation dried up considerably when they pestered me so much to tell them about my job, car and home that I finally told them what they didn�t want to hear. Needless to say we have only sent the odd joke emails since.
I am still in touch with 2 friends from school but with decreasing frequency.

I was a bit of a clown and I never did any home work then ended up homeless (sofa surfing) for the last 6 months at which time my attendance dropped substantially because I was depressed. Got good results in my exams though and picked up a few highers when I had my head sorted out a few years later. Still wish I'd stuck in and got a degree though!
I was fairly middle of the road re. academic intelligence and probably slightly more liberal than I am now. I was never head boy, but head sports boy for 3 years.
As I probably looked older than other boys, I was the one who tended to buy alcohol and booby mags for the others.
Had the cane twice, once for fighting on the rugby fireld and then for leaving the premises without permission.

i was a right little sh1te, academically i was in the top sets of all subjects, but I was more interested in having a laugh, playing tricks on teachers. they all hated me and my mate who I am still in touch with.
Funniest memory....calling my home ec teacher triple nipple (her popular nickname), but I actually said it "yes miss triple nipple", it just came out lol, boy was I in trouble !! :-))
