Was at a farmer’s market in Cumbernauld last week, down at the Craigmarloch Tesco car park. It’s really good, some cracking local butchers and bakers have stalls. I nipped into the Tesco for a lavvy trip while Mrs P and her sister head into the market area. I find them at a stall where the baker has a tasty looking selection of sausage rolls, pies & bridies etc. Mrs P pipes up ‘I fancy one of these chicken & mushroom pies, anything you fancy?’ I have a look and say I’ll have one of the chicken, haggis, and peppercorn sauce pies. The stall holder says ‘They both look the same, want me to bag them separately so you know which is which when you go to cook them?’ Without thinking, and without hesitation, I reply ‘Ach it’s OK, we don’t mind munching on each other’s pie’…. Couldn’t stop it, no chance. It was out there… to sniggers from everyone in earshot. Instant beamer, whit’ a riddy’… spluttering, vague noises of ‘erm, eh, oh shit’… then I looked, looked everywhere, but just couldn’t find a Kenneth Williams gif anywhere in that car park.

My sister bought a treadmill off a boy that was still paying the finance off on it :lol: Said he’d built it up then hadn’t even looked at the thing

I left school in 1977. We had a final assembly, then prize giving then that was it. My lasting memory was seeming some of the 6th year girls (down boy!) clinging to the pillars at the school entrance.  The only school based party we had was the usual torture of the Christmas disco.

I left in '83. We also had a Christmas disco every year which was for 4th/5th/6th years.  The highlight every years we seeing who was the drunkest amongst the pupils!

The French invented discos. I don't know if that's worse. 

Le disco as I believe they call them.  

Here's a pic from my leaver's disco -

My ears are sore after two and a half hours of (half) listening to my wife, youngest stepdaughter and granddaughter nr 4 gossiping about mutual acquaintances. I've no idea how they know half the stuff they're discussing.

Jimmy Savile claimed to have invented them. I'd rather it was the French...

Left my stepdaughter down at the mechanics to collect her car. (That was why she was sitting gossiping in ours, she had no vehicle to get home.) Drove back up the lane and stopped to chat to a chap I hadn't seen for a wee while, he was moving sheep, and had a trailer load of them on the back of his van. Suddenly two sheep appeared from round the back of his van - that brought the conversation to an abrupt halt!

I left school in 2010. We had our Leavers night in a place up the town. It was great, just  a big party. We had a Prom a week or two later at the Hilton. The dinner was great. The rest of the night was shite because everyone was depressed about leaving and nobody was pished because it was the Hilton and drinks cost a fucking fortune.
