    I went to the same school as Soma_Rich (though not at the same time).

    The school itself is mostly famous for a huge cock (not me I hasten to add)

    I think if anyone has been to Tenerife, then Rudeboy would claim hes’ been to elevenerife…

    Not at all. I’ve just had a relatively quite eventful childhood. None of what I wrote is untrue.

    Besides, Miketually definitely trumps me on the grisly murders front! 😯

    Yeegads good of course!

    Nicky was a pivotal player (maybe THE pivotal player in our 2002/2003 season) when we were beaten in the playoffs to reach the Premier league. The next season he was largely injured and subsequently moved on to Ipswich I think. If he’d stayed fit he’d have definitely been with the club still in the season when we finally made it to the Premier league (05/06) and would be truly writ into legend status among devotees.

    ah, good 🙂 Like I said, he’s a nice guy. He did go to ipswitch and is now at brighton I believe.

    The college I went to had a cast member from hollyoaks at the time. It’s had a few notable students, myself not included 😀 :

    My school was uninteresting. Uni much the same.

    But I hate idolising famous people, it drives me mad – the artsy famous lot were the kids I avoided.

    Peter Kay left the year I started at secondary school, I was taught by many of the same teachers. Went to the same 6th Form as Oscar winner Danny Boyle, he is a good few years older though.

    Oh and one more – one of my best mates was in a sex education video, so you have probably seen him naked. He was the one being born

    Edgar Wright, director of Spaced, Hot Fuzz etc, was in the year above me at school.

    Whilst everybody else was writing rubbish plays for GCSE drama, he was making films – even back then!

    Well, I went to school with myself. I was rich once and I am famous on account of a trail being named after me recently.

    The trail goes downhill fast – there may be some hidden meaning there.

    You’re not really built for it, are you fella.

    Ooh, how could I forget, Sarah Bailey (now Storey) was a couple of years below me, and she won swimming gold at the Barcelona Paralympics and cycling gold at Beijing

    The wonderful Charles ‘chatshow’ Kennedy was leaving just as I was starting high school. Fort Willam man takes a drink, shocker!!!

    Also at school with the blonde one from the pair who do poofy interiors. Justin Ryan, is it?

    And the talented time triallist Jason McIntyre who was sadly killed on a training ride in Jan 08.

    My games teacher at Middle school was Sir Ian Mcgeechan the ex scottish international and British Lions coach.

    Suprisingly we had the best rugby team in the region and were unbeaten for 3 seasons.

    My son is in the same class as Gaynor Faye (off Corrie years ago and dancing on ice) daughter.

    One of my mates teachers was on the news for cutting up and hiding his partner. Does that make him famous?

    are you still in Halesowen????

    Not living there any more lunge, though I go back quite regularly to visit. Do you live there? Keep meaning to take my bike one time, so as I can experience the Walton downhill…
