FLY2 10,108 Posted July 27, 2014 Report Share Posted July 27, 2014 Keep up the good work, I've only been on just over a year and I've racked up over 8,000. Most have been on Word, Song and Film Assn. Mind you a lot of the other stuff has been crap but I've made a few folk laugh. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Compo 10,328 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 When I was a tenager I knew everything - as you do. I fell out with the headmaster at school, got myself demoted from GCE to CSE class and married young. Although too late to apologise to both my father and the head for being an ars*hole, I finally got my act together and took a degree as a mature student, graduating as a BSc with distinction (Scottish degree) in 1999....late but got there eventually! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Compo 10,328 Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 July 1999. Sitting on top of my final Munro. A Munro is a Scottish mountain over 3,000ft high. There are 284 Munros in total. I sat with a celebratory bottle of whisky but no-one else was on the mountain that day so SWMBO and self drank it in the tent that evening. I was the 2,040th person to register as a "Compleator". 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

benjamin1945 16,139 Posted July 30, 2014 Report Share Posted July 30, 2014 Experienced a few highs of this thing called life,and some 'lows',its not about 'money' been 'flushed' been 'skint',its about the love of people who have 'come and gone'. Sometimes think its an achievement 'just to still be here' and lucky to be with family that care, others not so fortunate. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Smiffy49 590 Posted August 16, 2014 Report Share Posted August 16, 2014 Getting to now. Knowing some really nice people, trying to change some not so nice people. Not to mention all of the other things that have happened in between along the way. Being able to still remember the past wearing those rose tinted spectacles.
