Welcome to Andy Pitt's Life History

My Life

1963

04 September

On this day, I was born at a very early age.
This must have been one of the highlights of my life and like many more times to follow, I was not in a fit state to remember much about it !!!

1968

My earliest memory.

I started school today, the teacher said "Sit here for the present". I am still waiting for my present !!!

1975

Big day - New school.

Gone are the days of the Bobbington high life, its time to move on to the civilized world of Comprehensive school.
I never did find out why Grey house wore yellow football strips. Anyone who went to Edgecliffe school reading this who could shine a light on this mystery, please get in touch. email: andy@chipmonk.demon.co.uk

1978

Fell in love for the first time.

Yes Jane, I finally admit it. I did send you that postcard whilst on holiday.
Those games of badminton with you and Sally-Ann where the nearest I ever got to you.
Why wasn't my love returned?

1982

The real world beckons. It is time for me to leave school

What a water fight we had on our last day in the sixth form!! I have tried to put together a list of those who left with me. If you are reading this and you remember this event, please check my list by clicking and drop me an E-mail if I've missed you. Also update me with where you are now. email: andy@chipmonk.demon.co.uk

1984

Started work at West Bromwich Building Society.

An interesting part of my life, met some real good friends while working here and some rather 'interesting' characters.
Fog, Clarence, Psycho, Big Tracy to name a few.
Get in touch if you remember me. email: andy@chipmonk.demon.co.uk

1986

My first holiday abroad.

Club 18-30 in Lloret-de-mar.
A wild time, but what happened to the sex, sun and sangria reputation.
OK, it was sunny and the sangria tasted good. But I cant help feeling that I was missing something.

1987

The Birth of Swindon Young Farmers.

Why Swindon Young Farmers were based in Enville, I never really knew but we had some good times. Any old members out there, drop me a line. email: andy@chipmonk.demon.co.uk

1995

The birth of Chipmonk Computing Ltd.

1997

My first move into racehorse ownership.

AKRIS never got to a race course due to injuring itself as a two year old. RIP.
KISSED BY MOONLITE faired slightly better in 1999 where she got a second place at Leicester.
CASHNEEM. Third time lucky this time, he won a number of races in his career but has now been retired.
CHARNWOOD PRIDE Never made it as a racehorse, has now been retired to enjoy a quieter life in Dorset.
GALA JACKPOT. Took over ownership of this one in 2006 - Never made the grade and has now been retired.
LAURA LAND. Latest purchase - will be running as a two year old in 2008.

2000: Started work for EDS (later to be transferred to Cap Gemini). Money's ok, and will see me through until I win the lottery. (See 'The Future').

2003: Became manager of Wombourne Olympic Junior football team. Click here for details of how we are getting on now...
2008: The resurrection of Chipmonk Computing Ltd. Yes, it has been slumbering for the last 8 years but has just woke with a bang!

????

My Lucky Day

It will happen.
On some Saturday in the future, I will get 8 score draws on the pools and 6 numbers on the lottery on the same day.
This is guaranteed to happen. Just watch this space !!
