x-in-man Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Driven to school? Bah! Kids today have it easy. I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down t'mill, and pay t'mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our dad would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah. You were lucky! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
