Be 'comfortable' with well educated kids in good jobs and a decent retirement to look forward to after leaving school with 4 CSEs, having reports that depicted me as an absolute waster
Working incredibly hard with education after school (when I'd matured a bit) to fill in the gaps I created in my education
Meet Alan Smith shortly after him being sent off for Leeds against us (tidy guy, we had a laugh)
Fly in a harrier GR3
Go from a very fit 20 something running in competitive long distances, to a fat fifty something that struggles to put his socks on
Bucket Listers
See the Foo fighters live
Fly business class to Australia (still paying now, but absolutely worth it)
Visit my old school in Australia just before the pandemic, I left in 1976
Lots more on the list, just need to wise up with health and get the green light for travel, eg:
Australia again
Thailand (Krabi) again
Patagonia
The rest of South America
To get a metal detector and find a roman coin
To have good health for the rest of my days
Be interested to hear from all the overseas guys on this one.......
