We did a lot of mucking around.

We were taught by nuns.

You know, there was...

They were quite healthy in days.

But it's funny because I haven't seen everyone from school for so many years.

I've just sort of put it in a little place I've slightly forgotten about some of the daftness that went down.

And it was just joyous to see all our faces and see how young we were and hear what's happened to everybody.

And also just looking at things like the fire drill register and being able to pretty much name the entire class in chronological order, you know, in the way, because you just remember everyone's full names, Angela Kilcoyne and Liz Davis and Sophia Davinsky, like all my, Vicky Jobling, Emma Baxter, the whole crew.

We had the Jobling, we had David.

did you have a david jobling i wonder if any probably no relation you never know um and there's pictures of us doing dance routines i'm like oh my god even then what was it with always with the performances and the dance routines i was always putting on plays like right he wants to be in a zoe ball production what a knob honestly i must have driven everybody freaking mad i saw those photographs because you posted them on instagram and i thought that exact thing i thought god you were all you were a born performer right from the very beginning you're there and you're

And I could see Nell in you as well.

But you and Nell look very, very similar.

Same body shape and just that energy that shines out.

And it really, really made me think of Nell.

But also I could so see that you were there just loving it, like entertaining everybody, which is what you do now.

Carrie and I were laughing because there's us doing a dance routine at the front of the class and then half the class are just carrying on doing their own thing like, oh, here they go again.

Some other performance we're going to have to endure, you know, and just stupid, ridiculous, childish behaviour.

And I just would like to apologise to anyone who had to do it.

to teach me for being such a dick at school but years later you sort of when you learn about ADHD and all that sort of concentration stuff and focus problems and I've seen it in my own kids I'm like oh right yeah that's probably why that was it I just couldn't concentrate and I couldn't write I found it hard to write things down in huge paragraphs and stuff but it was a joy to see and it was quite funny how many people

had seen the photographs and thought that they were their own school photographs because they just brought back so many of the memories of those days.
