i still see most of my mates from school every two weeks.
My best mate has been doing rail engineering in Australia for the past year, and is due back next month.
The others are all pretty level headed guys- 2 have now got houses, one living with his mrs.
3 went to uni and are now working in decent jobs (although one got a international business and french degree and works at the MOD- really using your degree!!
one is a policeman in london
and the only one who isnt fulfilling potential is at home with his parents and has been a personal trainer/gym assistant for the past 7 years..
Cant think of anyone in my school who i know has made a shed load of money or sold a company like your mate from school.

Only person to earn ridiculous amounts is my mate who shags girls in garages, he worked two years in Iraq for a security firm.
We were taught at school to be murderers, stalkers, drug addicts & depression specialists.

I rarely speak to my old school friends. Cliques dissapeared at A level time, Everyone went to Uni, those who didn't were either being bum's or working.
Those of us who were working obviously weren't going out every other night so instantly fell out of that group. I then decided to move away and have probably only spoken to 4 or 5 people from school in the last 6 months

I'm still in touch with my good mates from primary school, we all went to the same high school aswell so grown up with most of them. Wouldn't really want to find a new 'group' to be honest.

Little Heath. Good school if you actually want to be there. In hindsight I want to be there again for another 5 years so I can get up to even more shit and break even more things.

High School friends, still speak to my best friend and see her everynow and again, currently goes to uni.
rest of my mates rarely speak to, but do every now and then, god knows what most of them are up to, think most are at uni.
college friends, the only one i heard off lately turns out shes an air hostess, god knows about any others.
im terrible for keeping in contact with anyone at the best of times

I like the fact my memories of school end with my last year of secondary school and that none of us were allowed to stay on for 6th form.
Hilarious when we got told we were no longer allowed to stay (not that any of us were planning on staying) and that we were to find other schools if we wanted to go onto A-Level.

I actually won my first and only award on the last day of school in assembly.
Head of Year said "These three share 3 intials R O C, I have spent the last 2 years chasing around after these 3 boys, Ryan Cripps, Oliver Crowe, Ross Overton" "The award for I seek them here, I seek them there, I seek them every fucking where"
And infront of 300 of our year we got tied together by our ties around our arms and told to stay like that for the day, YEAH MATE.
The next minute we are sat down with our water pistols full of red dye firing it across the heads of everyone in white shirts, hilarious.

With living in the Highlands a lot of my old school mates have moved away,
Edinburgh
Glasgow
Aberdeen
Australia
New Zealand
South Africa
South America
I can go onto facebook right now and find mates in each of those countries,
My best mate from secondary school is now living in Norway.
Australia is an option for me, depending how the next few years go

That's sad 
Some of my best memories are from the 5 years at Secondary School, I would hate to have lost touch with everyone I shared those memories with.

I see two of my mates from school regularly, one of which i've know since I was 4. I stayed in touch with loads of people from school until 2/3/4 years ago but fallings out and lives generally going in different directions mean i'm left with those two and 2/3 more who I see every 6 months or so. I think the main two will remain friends for life. Alot of the ones I don't speak to still live in the general area although some have moved away working abroad or in other parts of the UK.

Yes! We have one that has changed his sex, knew that was going to happen though.
This is the boy that got caught washing his feet in his Art Form Room and then got expelled after joining in Year 11 for trying to touch Year 7's in the toilets.
Now the second part MAY have been an exageration but we never knew why he got expelled and at that age I thought the explaination of touching boys in the toilet to be quite tame.
It would have been better if he had been caught sausage and beans deep into our German teacher who was also a ramping homosexual.

I always get a good laugh out of bumping into birds that were fit in school, who have now got fat. Usually have a couple of ugly kids in tow as well

I'm still good mates with people I went to school with.
One I've known since we were 5 and we were in the same class together throughout school.
Some are different now though.
