Back to School already?

So Christmas is nearly done and dusted. Somehow it has passed in a hazy glow of 6am starts, ripped wrapping paper, over indulgence, nerf guns, amateur wine tastings and the most shocking, appalling karaoke anyone has ever had the misfortune to listen to.

The embarrassing siblings.

However there's just one final function that I need to attend before I can put a big fat tick beside Christmas 2011, and that is (deep breath) my 20 year school reunion.

To be honest I'm at a loss as to why it is called the 20 year reunion because I actually left school in 1991 - which clearly was only about 8 or 9 years ago... But anyhow, it has been decreed that this is our year and the party is all set.

Back in the day. Me on the right.

They're a funny thing school reunions. The last one was in 2001 and most questions centred around 'So what do you do then?' as eyes glazed over and brains started calculating what that equated to in £ signs. Being on the dole at the time meant my conversations weren't a great hit that night.

This time I imagine it will be all about marraige (yes) and kids (3). In ten years time I expect it'll be divorce and death.

The only questions left to answer right now though are (a) what to wear? and (b) is it too late to get botox?

Anyway, my plan is to drink too much, tap my feet to tunes like this:



and generally try not to embarrass myself.

I'll let you know how that turns out....

Last day of school and the obligatory swim in your uniform
