Another wonderful social comment. I remember those days, suddenly Hornby Trains did not have the same appeal!

Ain't it the truth Lew. The road to ruin starts early......(-:

Thanks for your great feedback, I guess all the lads will recognize this, and the girls I expect...usually they are ahead of the boys in maturity matters.

Your facial expressions and colours are priceless, Lewis...and yes, I think we can all relate to this!

I wasn't sure whether to cover this, but it's an important part of growing up so I've given it a shot. I can't remember exactly when and how it happened, but I do know I went from having no interest in girls to being attracted to them more or less overnight. I think that's how it happens, you may disagree. I do know I was still in short pants. Nothing much changed, I was still a kid, but girls were now on the agenda. So, apart from those factors, this page is pure fantasy, and just a way to present the idea.

About the Artist

Lewis Cooper

Self taught. Love drawing. Like to make pictures up, without using reference pics, often in cartoon style. I do other pictures where I do use reference. I'm knocking on a bit, born in 1940 in Greenwich, London. Retired, and loving it.
