the young ones part 4

Sometimes there are meetings with other occupants

And more drugs and laughs

A few days pass...

October rolls on...

They keep warm

What happened to them – where are

they now ?

Mike went to live with a girlfriend at her parents’ house on the banks of the Thames at

Wargrave, thought about a public school job such as High Court judge, and ended up in the defence industry in the

Thames Valley, his Dad having been an Army officer

Steve graduated in History before getting a job at a girls’

school near Rome

Ray spent 17 years in and out of mental hospitals before being rescued by Margaret Thatcher’s community care

Derek pulled himself together and got a job as a bricklayer’s

labourer on a building site

Rose’s parents made Algy an offer he could not refuse :- a

one way ticket to Amsterdam, where he was reported to

have died from alcoholism and neglect

Dan followed Algy to Amsterdam where he caught

the clap from a European chick also named Dan. He was last seen in London with most

of his teeth missing, with those remaining blackened.

The End
