When you were younger...

What did you really want to be? What career appealled to you?

My mum always reminds me that I wanted to be a window cleaner. Now I wish I had been a butcher or a fish monger, but I'm at uni instead.

I cant say that I was ever career minded. My only aspiration was to have a job whereby I could pay the bills and not nag my kids constantly about shutting doors to keep the heat in and turning lights off. Me mum was a pain in the bum for that.

i wanted to be a copper when i was young

I was never really sure. I expected to do teaching probably maths/science but not through any real desire.

TBH I've tendedto fall into careers as life moved on and I've made some good decisions and been lucky. Now I have a very well paid job that I enjoy doing so it all worked out for me

Oh and another point, mention if you actually did manage to do your dream job. obviously I didnt but I guess there is always time haha.

Hey, me too Flashy, (after actress of course), but was then 5'4.1/2" and minimum was 5'5" (now lowered), they said if I ever attained the required height, would consider my application. Hmmph, should have lied I guess, and stood tall at physicals..

I wanted to be a nurse or teach....though I left school without any paper qualifications so it seemed very unlikely that I would do either.......but in the end, with a lot of determination, willpower, and support from my hubby I managed to do both.

I wanted to be a stud so I'm probably one of the few who achieved the end result

People have dogs up for stud. People pay for the 'stud' to have sex with their female so they have pups, happens with cats as well. Its a pedigree breeder thing.
