I would love to be a pilot,either commercial or military.

Since that doesent look like it is going to happen a solider.

If that doesent happen,I would like to sit in town all day with a bottle of devils bit and pretend I am flying choppers!:pac:

I wanted to be a ballerina until I was about eight. Then I realised that would never happen. Still danced for 15 years though, only gave up in January. After that a teacher. Now I'm at college studying management in the arts!

Me too, unless someone decides they need banking facilities in space I doubt I'll get the call.

Me too.

Or a cartographer.

Wanted to be Batman till I was 5 and when I realised that was'nt possible I decided that I wanted to make Batman so since then I've wanted to be a film maker. Am currently on the way to accomplishing that dream.

I wanted to drive around in a kick ass van with three close friends, on the run from the law. Of course we'd be broke, so we'd have to make money by helping ordinary citizens out with their problems against stereotypical bad guys who wanted their property and other valuables.



That... or Hulk Hogan.






... I'm unemployed.

I wanted to be Magnum PI... could never grow the tash

J.S. Pill

I wanted to be a civil servant. When I was a lad and all my friends wanted to be firemen and superheros when they grew up, I had my eyes on a nice secure public sector deskjob. Now I f*ckin' hates the bastards. Also, I was a very very odd child.

Cannon-Ball

When I was young I remember I wanted to be a Priest, that was at the age of around 6 -7, my grand-mother influenced that one.

Between the ages of 8 - 13 I wanted to be a Professional Football player, what lad that age did not?

When the school got inside my head and made me choose a profession, I decided on Computers and Business. Sucessfully completed college and now work in IT.

I still dream occasionally, nearly at the age of 30, of being a Pro Footballer.

Wanted to be a Pro Soccer player. Played for Longford Town youth teams for a few years but never continued it. Or either become a Garda. That's unlikely to happen considering i rarely attend school and i'm unlikely to do any good in my LC .

It's a tough life !.

Close enough, fireman.
Dad's one. Granddad was one. Link goes back even further. Went to the pub once with Dad and a few of the lads from the station and said "fck this, I'll be a teacher and the little brother can carry the torch"- not doing that.
