Ed, Ted and Eddie

Time to dip into the "School Trips" boxes, and this time it's from the "Ibiza, Easter 1973" selection.

Three of the "young dudes" pose for the camera in their finery. Denim and crimplene...perefect for those hot days in Spanish sun. I wonder what happened to these chaps ?

Ed (left) left school at 15, and started roadying for midlands legends "The Hammermen", before being convicted of drug dealing and landing up in jail for 7 years. On release, Ed found Jesus, and ran a youthclub in Matlock before being convicted  of drug dealing again. After another 7 years, we was released on parole and disappeared off  to Canada with his best friend's daughter.

Ted (middle) was a geek, and remained a geek. Honing his programming skillson the Polytechnic's mainframe,  he wrote the software for a small local building society. Unfortunately, he included an exploit that skimmed 1 penny off every acount, every month into his own account, and was last heard of on the run in Thailand.

Eddie (right) in now the Tory MEP for East Anglia (North). Loser.
