Sundae's Album - Page 2

Two school plays.
I am front left kneeling (looking into the camera) as Mustardseed in A Midsummer Night's Dream.

And Rock Nativity - one of three wise men. Taken in the show-biz setting of the corridor between the sports changing rooms and the stage.

And finally
Two school photos.

I'm not in the first - it was the last week of term & Mum & Dad took us out early to take advantage of the cheaper prices at the caravan park in Great Yarmouth. But I think it's interesting as a testament to how 12 years olds looked in 1984. No-one was allowed to wear make-up, but there are definitely some womanly girls in there. I wasn't. If I was there I'd have been the smallest, the skinniest and the youngest looking.

In the second I am centre front (of course!) HM is in there too but I'm not naming any names out of respect for privacy. Taken in 1988 - lots of 80s hair in this one

Whenever you say HM I think you mean Happy Monkey.

My new favorite thread. Moar pls.

Awesome Sundae!! Thanks for sharing

I really want to comment on the girl - front, centre in the first one....but

Sundae · 06-29-2008, 06:18 AM

She's also at my birthday party...

Sundae · 07-05-2008, 08:42 AM

Okay, by popular demand.
Early shots.

Sundae · 07-05-2008, 08:43 AM

Don't hate me for being such a snappy dresser...

Sundae · 07-05-2008, 08:46 AM

I hated ballet.
I used to cry when I had to go.

In the end my Mum decided it wasn't worth the hassle.
I seem to remember this being taken on the day I was allowed to quit, hence the smile. I think Dad figured it might be the last chance he had to take a girly photo of me - I was already a tomboy.

Sundae · 07-05-2008, 08:50 AM

The first one is one of my Dad's special Injury Photos.
I'd fallen when running across the playground with a bottle of medicine in my hands. In those days you had to take it out to the dinner ladies for them to supervise you taking it. It changed after my fall - and more sensibly was administered inside the school.

As I was mindful of breaking the precious bottle I did not use my hands to break my fall and landed on my face. I had to have a piece of stone removed from my forehead in hospital.

Second picture is three iconic symbols. Princess Leia, me and Charlie Chaplin in Leicester Square.

And finally (for now)
Me as a Brownie (US equivilant Girl Scout I assume)
For the Britsd, yes I was a Sixer. Of the Pixies. What a good girl.

And butter wouldn't melt in my mouth - me on my Confirmation Day

DanaC · 07-05-2008, 09:41 AM

Oh my god don't you look proper for your confirmation lol

Lovely shots SG. I'm pretty sure my wardrobe more or less matched yours throughout the seventies and early eighties hahaha.

Elspode · 07-05-2008, 10:21 AM

We have Brownies here as well. I believe they are pre-Girl Scouts, as Cub Scouts are pre-Boy Scouts.
