Were You A Good Girl/ Boy Or A Wild Child?

[Bobbisox1]

Mod or Rocker ,Punk or Goth

Well were you?

[emmie]

to start with i was a flower child, i went along with brothers who liked bands like Pink Floyd, and then i became a mod, all mohair suits, ben sherman shirts, cropped hair, dancing along to the latest reggae, ska, soul tune. then it got to the middle stage where i was heavily into soul, dance venues, night clubs anywhere they played the music i adored. wild child yes i guess so, i went right off the rails for a time, but once work became more serious then it rather curtailed my activities. Fun whilst it lasted.

Rocker Tom boy. Today I would be bi???? Even after birthding 3 kids

[Bobbisox1]

I was a Mod too, short hair, baseball boots, Crombie coat but hardly wild , I had a Vespa scooter and would go to the coast on a bank holiday Monday with another load of friends but first sight of trouble, I was away haha

[emmie]

i hardly drank, and didn't do drugs like both brothers, i got high on the music.

[Bobbisox1]

Me either ,in fact I can honestly say I never was offered or saw any drugs whatsoever

[emmie]

oh i did, when dating a black guy, all his mates smoked marijuana, and drank red stripe beer or rum if they could.
i didn't partake in this, not my thing at all. at blues parties this would go on all night.

same as bobbi at 12.52 :-)

Only time I think it was around me then was when a few of us went to see a friend play in this cellar type of place,the sweet smell was overpowering

[emmie]

i was probably stoned and didn't realise it, all those people puffing on ganja, i was once carried out of a club, after they doctored my drink with dark rum. I was drinking coca cola, and didn't notice the taste.

Normalcy whatever that is or was. No drugs, very moderate drinking. Strong work ethic based upon survival. Had intent, met a young lady, intention went out the window. I sacrificed potential upon the alter of mediocrity.

The first time I was aware of someone smoking a substance was in a staff meeting in my first teaching job, the staff battleaxe commented how pleasant Mr H's tobacco was, such an improvement!

I am, and always have been a rocker - hard rock, heavy rock, prog rock. However, i suppose my 'wild child' tendencies were curtailed by joining the army at 16 and a half years old. I was never a 'model soldier' though - still a tad too wild for their archaic rules and regulations, and i was often fined for my antics.
I do sometimes wonder just what might have been had i not enlisted, as 2 of the 3 guys in my band of close-knit friends (pre-army) succumbed to the lure of heroin and are no longer with us. The other is now a drug-addled zombie. I like to think i would have had more sense than go down that rocky road.

[ummmm]

I've never been a dedicated follower of fashion.

Tall, good-looking, good at sport, surrounded by girls......it wasn't an easy teenaged era.
Was the lead singer in a group called the Collegiates and our only gig was at the Social Club Springfield Laundry.
I was sensational but my backing group was rubbish.
We disbanded 24 hours later .

[Bobbisox1]

a stint in the forces made for good men with a trade Ken and disciplined too

[Bobbisox1]

haha sqad, come on what songs did you sing?

[douglas9401]

I Don't Need No Doctor
Doctor My Eyes
Doctor Doctor
Mack The Knife

etc.

[ummmm]

I was a bit of a wild child. I couldn't sit still.

But I never ever answered by parents and grand parents back.

The only person I fought with is one of uncles. He used to torment me. We've ended up best friends though.
