Diary of a Lovesick Teenager Header Image

Thursday, 22nd January 1976

Went school nothing happened again concerning Catherine still like her of course. Went works dance at St.Mary’s Club, all the Firth* people were there, I had about 4 pints of lager, when I was dancing I fell over twice due to the polished floor and my high heel shoes.

* The Firth was the Firth Company Ltd, one of several wire works in the Warrington area. It was situated on Nora Street, Howley and was demolished in the early 80s to make way for sheltered housing. My mother, grandad and grandmother all worked here at various times throughout the 1960s and 70s.

Diary of a Lovesick Teenager

Because this is a diary, it was written at the time and at no point are there any exaggerations, lies or anything that may be misleading, it is written with an honest, if naive hand due to the tender age of it’s author. It can be described as funny, a little sad in parts and reflects my thoughts at the time, but most of all it is an honest document that I hope above all will entertain and amuse.
