🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I had sat my o levels ....and started work in the bank at £3 a week ....half of which I had to give to my mum and dad for my board
My parents eventually forced me into finance when I got fed up with dancing😂
I wanted to be a librarian but that wasn't good enough apparently
I wanted to be a librarian too .......or an archivist ....took me til my 40s to realise that dream
How odd, we both had the same aspirations....I went to Uni in my forties😂

I was useless at sport ....in fact I was useless at anything practical
I hated PE. Was able to drop it for Drama when I was 16
I was a fast runner,so on the athletics team...and because I was fast and handy with a weapon,on the school hockey team as well
I played hockey and netball and was okay at tennis but, I hated all of it.

Takes off uniform, I have left school now (well then) and have entered the school of life....
