Went in at 16 (both parents had died by then) was in Ireland before my 17th birthday. We used to get petrol bombed just walking the streets, women screaming at you, men wanting to fight you, not the nicest place to be but I survived and am happy to have done my 'little bit' :beer:Bloomin' hell. That is grim. How old were you when you were sent over? Must admit, even now when i think of Ireland, i have visions of men in balaclavas, camoflage uniforms and big guns. hmmmm....Natwest gold..Limit £1750 bal £970..Vanquis Limit £3000 bal £0..Littlewoods..Limit £1200 bal 0..Additions direct..Limit £4900 bal £1356..Empire Limit £6200 bal £152..Jd williams..Limit £1100 bal £130..Simplybe..Limit £1500 bal 265,,Fashion world..Limit £1400 bal £145 Jacamo..Limit£125 bal 0

Nothing special, got paid to do a job, kept my head down and made it back
Everytime I jump in my coach it's the same, never know 100% that the day will be trouble free.
That is exactly why I'm like I am.. life is for living and if I drop dead tomorrow I want to go happy, not a miserable sod who has done nothing :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Call me MR HAPPY :rotfl: YOU can call me SIR.... or subbie slave Bri :rotfl:Natwest gold..Limit £1750 bal £970..Vanquis Limit £3000 bal £0..Littlewoods..Limit £1200 bal 0..Additions direct..Limit £4900 bal £1356..Empire Limit £6200 bal £152..Jd williams..Limit £1100 bal £130..Simplybe..Limit £1500 bal 265,,Fashion world..Limit £1400 bal £145 Jacamo..Limit£125 bal 0
