serene56: I left school after completing Year 10, I got straight A's and a couple of my teachers were gutted that I wasn't going to do the final two years
But I felt compelled to leave and earn an income as I'd seen my mother struggling to make ends meet after my father died.
I was 15 years old.
I got a part time job while studying at college then took a secretarial role at a major bank...
When I was 18 which is like 35 now lol I met my future husband and the rest is history
Actually after reading this I've realised that life has has been a bit crap
I won't mention the earlier crap but I guess it's a case of if it doesn't kill you it makes you stronger

Not sure whether I really regret this or not. The older generation can be an example of what not to be, let the apple fall as far away from the tree in future as it did so in the past my dad's parents were absolute legends.
