Hello, welcome to my blog

Mostly you will find, here, transcribed entries from the secret diary that I used to keep as a teenager between 1970 and 1975. I try to be honest with my transcriptions, but, just occasionally I do edit, to protect myself or others from embarrassment or some other emotion.
Also, though, I like to do a brief review of the books I have been reading, so these are interspersed throughout. I reserve the right to write blog entries, also, about other random things.
Why do I keep this blog? I don't know. I am an academic and one of my research interests is around how people construct their own identities. The diary transcriptions, and what I write about my books, are very much about revealing something of my identity.

My Diary 1971 March

No entries for March, apart from:
"Me and J joined Egerton St Youth Club during the time I didn't write my diary. Everyone warned us off. Said it would be rough.My dad said he didn't think I'd like it 'cos it was rough. Anyway we joined. Lonely at first but JP was there. She's alright by herself but with other people UGH!We met 3 girls called Denise, Karen and Lynn. All ok. Welllll.... Denise talks a lot, Karen is too quiet and Lynn is working. All people at youth club smoke. I don't like it much, only go to please J, but on April 27th found out she is only going to please me! Had a good laugh. Not going again.
