Back In The Day

Got to into bed last night and having one of the “remembering something random” episodes. I remember sending a letter to the Head Teacher of the Primary School I attended as she was retiring to wish her well. This was last year and I remember receiving a letter back.

This got me thinking. I have had this before. My memory is not that good before I was 13 for one reason or another. But this was interesting. Slowly I was piecing together bits, events that happened when I was at primary school.

I remember the final term in year 6 receiving an endeavour award. I was sitting at the top left of the assembly hall and remember getting up to walk to the front to receive the award with the students and teachers clapping their hands.

Then I started to remember other things. In year 5, I sat at the back right of the room near the green door. Back then, if I was to walk out of the door, turn left, directly to the left was where we kept our bags and lunch boxes. A small wall separated that from a PC and shelves cover in green trays that held paper clips, rulers, etc.

In Year 4 I sat at the back, middle of the classroom. I remember with 2 of my friends (who I am still in contact with today) drawing cars on 2D graphics paper and colouring them in black felt tip, over and over again. Lol

There was a lot more I could remember but I cant be bothered to write all the information here. Then I kind of snapped out of it, feeling really, really hot. Next thing I was probably asleep.

Well I can say on that is, if the mind is piecing fact together, or, filling the gaps with fiction to continue the story line, all good fun……….
