There were quite a few set backs for David, in his teen years, as much as we try to keep our loved ours from bad things happening, sometimes things happen, that are out of our control. David's early teens were typical of an energetic, sporty young man, raging with hormones. He had many paper rounds,(ok,so maybe they didn't always reach their correct destination!), to earn the money that never seemed to last long,Even then. Being such a happy, friendly, outgoing lad, he always had good friends of both sexes, but it was about 13 when the girls suddenly started to call a lot. He wasn't quiet ready then, and couldn't understand all the extra attention,while he was playing football and having fun, but it wasn't long before he started to really enjoy it. After leaving school, David started at Redcar and Cleveland college, while doing a very long milk round. He was always a hard worker, and loved to be busy.
