Hi Ogbs .... It all started in lucia king ,As you ogbs know I was naughty right from the time I came out of my mothers stomach ,so lucia king didnt make a difference . Infact I brushed up my naughty skills in lucia king and it gave me more skills for the future . From lucia king ,I landed up in wales lodge where Aunty mary was taken care of me ,she had her eyes on me for 24 hours and belive me I cant remember how many times she complained to Mr Tweedie about me . I got this feeling she liked me but also hated me when I got on the wrong side of the fence . On the whole she was an excellent lady who jjst had her own ways of training the boys .Man she wacked you really hard and my bum was often blue or black for most of the days . Then from there landed up in scottish canadain ,dang everything looked so big ,that i felt like a small turd . heheheheh cottage life was good ,had Mr and Mrs Hopley as cottage dhari and thaje . They were ok but man I used to sleep next to their door and every nite i could her them HUMPING .....hehehehe I thought maybe they are watching a movie but in those days Television was rare in the Homes . I kinda hated Hopley he was scared of the big boys ,so they used to bully the small boys ,and I went through hell . Then in class 8 when I was still in the hostel we had George Harrap as our cottage dhaje ,gosh he used to take Kaini all the time ,so much so we buggers landed up smoking no 10 fags and flair fags . thats where the habbit kicked in and till today i regret this .But cant blame anyone . Then in class 10 landed up in the hostel ,where Mr David Royan was in charge .He was also my grade 6 teacher . he was ok ,just that some people didnt like him .I had no problems with him .he did dhup me up sometimes but i quess thats the way he thought was the best way to decipline students ,no regrets . Over all I had a great time in the homes and did go through some sadness and very dark stages of my boy hood but I quess lets forget the negatives and look for the positives and enjoy what we have now .
