That'll Be The Day (1973)

Not one mention of Billy Fury... A true Legend.

This is one of the most realistic movies depicting my youth. I even walked away from a military career and bought a guitar.

As a man of 71 now..I look back and wonder how I survived working on the fairground..a great experience travelling around...and the girls..in some towns the guys were like celebrities..I suppose it was because we were seen as bad boys..and as a girlfriend once told me years later..we still chat on messenger..she was attracted to bad boys. I have to laugh..if you could see this bad boy now..71, a bit of a pouch..shaved head, I was going bald, and glasses..in fect a pensioner..to see Ringo and David..brings back personal memories. What it doesn't show you why we always looked grubby..hardly a break and hard work. Working the rides was the fun part. I have lain under a wagon..in a pool of freezing water..in winter..uncpupling a trailor..not so glorious a life, but we had our fun as well. I was 17 and working in a foundry..after a shift..all night..I looked like a ghost. Working nights meant no fun with my mates at weekends. I also lived with very strict dad..mum was OK. I would give him my wages..and got 10 Bob back. 10 Bob for a weeks work on nights. What did I do..I buggered off and took the the road..the fairground kame later. Now I like overseas in my own house with a nice bit of land in the countryside near a lake, mountains etc. who knew this bad boy would do OK ? 😉😀
