The Mill Hill Crew Pt. I: Ramteen

There are those friends in your life that you grow up with during your days of adolescence, lose contact with them for awhile, then get to know them again and find out that a lot of things have changed. Whilst Ramteen changed, deep down he remained the same. Got to give credit for that.

I met Ramteen in Hendon Prep. What the British call a public school, but technically it isn't because it isn't owned by the government and you have to pay fees. Ramteen and I got along because of one thing: humor.

During breaks we'd convene in the school yard talking about the funniest lines and moments from Jasper Carrot, Red Dwarf, Bottom and any other TV comedy that caught our attention. We'd talk for hours over the jokes and sketches that these shows gave us. Especially Red Dwarf. Shit, we both even bought the spin off single, Tongue Tied, when it came out.

Then we both went to the same GCSE school, and things were different. He was boarding, I was a day student, and kids were cruel fuckholes that deserved to be shot. And it wasn't like Ramteen didn't have enough problems at home, which I won't delve into (although, rest assured, he was not beaten or anally molested).

By the time A levels and Uni came we had gone our seperate ways, and somehow met up again, and things sure had changed. For starters, I never knew that you could shave sideburns into thunderbolts leading to your goatie, but I guess he proved me wrong.

But even with his sudden transformation into an 'innit' kid, as I like to call it, he was still the same Ramteen.Except this Ramteen had the pleasure of fucking a hot Californian customer in the changing rooms of the clothes shop he worked at when he went to the States for a stint.

Last I heard he was designing websites with marijuana logos. Hope the buggers alright.
