I`m not old but I`d say some of my group of mates are already suffering some ill effects from our last 2-3 years or so hard hitting ravery and.....ahem chemical recreation :-/

Probably said too much there...........

I certainly know too many people who are suffering.

I am not and feel lucky for it.

Damn! There was me thinking this might be a thread about not being able to get into the spare room for the piles of old Beanos...

I definitely come from a more innocent era.

I am living a mispent youth as we speak...GCSEs are on their way and I really can`t be arsed anymore (a year ago I was keen to do well - now I am plagued by thoughts on the meaning of life + the destructive nature of the human condition, so my focus on menial tasks such as exams (menial in the fact that the only outcome of life is death, where exams have no bearing) has waned).

After them I have AS *and* A2 levels! Lucky me!

(Yes, I know I am living a comfortable life of no taxes or bills at present, but c`mon, us teenagers have it worse overall... ;) )

GCSE`s?..you mean O Levels of course :-) (ex teacher speaking)...anyway, some git taught me how to play the violin and that was it...great music, and many nights in the pub afterwards....the life of a pro musician is hard and painful at times...

BUT..if anyone wants to help, they can always buy `The Two Towers` 4 disk edition later on in the year..it all helps!!! <hic>

Bill Bryson said it all for me in one of his books where he states that; every time he opens a cupboard or enters a room and forgets why he makes a mental note to take a better class of drugs in his next incarnation. I have a memory like a sieve.

Excessive consumption of snakebites at an early age started the damage; LSD, blow and speed sealed the fate of a multitude of braincells.

We used to watch all nighters at the Scala, an old fleapit in Kings Cross, on a cocktail of acid, blow and beer. First time I saw Nightmare on Elm Street I nearly ran out of the place screaming, especially when my mate started turning into a rat (this was not related to the film).

I think the Scala`s a club now.

Happy days.....
