Diary Entries for : May 1976

Had no exams today. Walked to school with these two third year girls they wanted me to wait for them at 4.00pm, but I got kept in and missed them. Revised a bit at night. Finished them plans* off and cut the grass. * The plans were my design for my dads new garage. My dad had to get planning permission to build a garage in the back garden so I designed them and later submitted them to the town hall and they were eventually approved and the garage was built.

Had Community Studies exam in morning. Had no lessons in afternoon. Took my oil painting in school in morning. Walked home with them girls at night. They want me to do them a drawing each, they said they will pin it on their wall, and they want me to sign them. Looks like I’ve got two fans. Mum and dad went out at night.
