According to this spread (which you can find in the My 1975 Diary 2025 Calendar, which is still on sale, for its sins) me and persons unnamed were "attacked by bullies from 2-3". That's Year 2 form 3, at Kibworth High School. Given the way our school years were numbered, that means I'm talking about what we'd now call Year 8s. Knowing what I know about Year 8s, after my many years teaching Comic Art Masterclasses in schools, I can attest to Year 8s being quite the most horrible of years. Their beating up on a poor Year 7 (which is what I would have been) is the least they got up to, I'll be bound.
My fondness for Planet Of The Apes was evident from these page designs. I busied myself writing and drawing my own Planet Of The Apes comics at this time, which I discovered a few years ago when we cleared out Mum's house. They have yet to be shared with the world. It could happen.
My Records For The Day were obscurities by "Western Central Station" (this was, I realise fifty years later, Graham Central Station, names after Larry Graham) and Dr Hook And The Medicine Show.
