    When I grow up.....

    I want to be???

    As a child who or what did you dream of becoming? And did you realize that dream? or go on to be something else?

    When I was about 3 I wanted to be a Bride
    At 10 or 11 it was a Nurse, then in high school a History Teacher, Which was totally unrealistic.As I'm now married I guess 1 outta 3 isn't bad

    I wanted to be a Cookery Demonstrator . Went to college, strained my back which put me in bed on a board for six weeks, when I got back to college the headmistress wanted me to start over - and like most stroppy teenagers I said no and walked !! I became a Telephonist for the GPO (fore runner of BT )

      but then decided getting a job in a bank was a lot safer

        I remember when my daughter Hayley was 4 and she was playing with her friend Nicola who was 5 and lived next door.

        I asked what they would like to be when they grew up .
        Nicola said she wanted to be a cleaner and Hayley wanted to be an ice cream man !!!
        Prospects, hey

        They are now 22 and 21 .

        Hayley is training to be a midwife and Nicola is a florist.

          So things turned out well huh Buzz, but what about you?

          My daughter 6 wants to be a ballet dancer (she just passed her primary grade 1 and is taking grade 2 next month) so who knows!!!
          And my son (4) wants to be Spiderman

            Growing up having programs like Starsky and Hutch and The Professionals as my favourites, I wanted to be a policeman. I never took it further than thinking about it, although i did spend a couple of years working for the police as a civilian.
            The only thing to look forward to is the past

              Well very cliched me ...........

              Always wanted to be a footballer ........ Just ate slept and drank it (just like the advert) til 11 ....... when I kinda realised it wasn't gonna happen.

              Wanted to be a Forensic scientist after that - always interested me - still does - but there you go life got in the way.

              Tried for the Police force as a plod (17) - but at the time there were height restrictions in Notts (not allowed to do that now !) - because Notts was very popular they could raise the bar and I was 1/2 inch too short (no comments please)- Now due to Gun city culture I think they'd take me - good target practice

                I wanted to be Luke Skywalker!

                I think I also wanted to be an Astronaut, didn't make it though, just spent (and still do) most of my time with my head in the clouds.

                I never really had a big idea of what I wanted to do when I left school, still don't and I left nearly 20 years ago!
