Soooooo thin! 1976??

When I was younger I used to attend the Christian Union at my secondary school.  Each year the leaders organised a summer camp for a week when we all went to the Isle of White on the south coast of England.

In this picture (which was taken in about 1976) I looked so thin - I can't believe it!  In those days I would cycle everywhere and do lots of active running around.  It's a bit different now I'm afraid.

The other thing I noticed was how my trousers are patched up - I'm not sure that a kid these days would allow himself to be seen wearing trousers with patches on the knees.  Thanks Mum!

Anyway - remember that we are still looking for the worst picture of Steve.  Is this the worst so far?

At least you didn't have to wear hand-me-downs that had been through your oldest brother, female cousin, male cousin, second brother and then finally down to me! I reckon your trousers don't have a patch on that!!! Serena
