    Bad school behaviour

    All this talk about banning and general naughtiness, takes me back to my schooldays, when I got in to trouble once or twice (only once or twice mind ; I was the "quiet type" who got away with blue murder, because all the loud kids drew the attention to themselves)

    I fondly remember a morning assembly, with the whole school present, and as usual, we sung hymns or songs before the morning lecture from the headmaster.

    One morning, we had to sing "Where have all the flowers gone", by whichever artist I forget.

    My only defence for my vocal transgression, was the fact that the previous night, I had been watching "Top of the Pops".

    Which is why, even to this day, when I hear the lyrics to :

    "Where have all the flowers gone",

    I cannot resist to shout out,

    "Up Morrissey's Arse"

    Thank you, you've been a lovely audience....
    Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

      F.O.

      Seriously.

        Careful could result in a mass banning!

            I can remember making 'bombs' out of swimming pool chlorine when I was a kid.. If I did it now, I would probably be detained under anti-terrorism laws..

              We burnt stuff, and chucked rocks at each other. One kid got a broken collarbone. It sounds terrible doesn't it? But it was always them thats started it they led me astray. No knifes though, except on day trip to Calais, the little wooden handled jobbies. And firecrackers. We didn't go a second time.
              Bored.

                Aye, good old Calais. We called it the 3F trip.

                Flickknives, Firecrackers and Frenchies.

                Funningly enough, we only ever went once as well.

                Compared to us though, Lord only knows what the "rough school" down the road got up to when they went there....

                  We used to go into the doorway where the teacher would stand to supervise the kids coming into school after playtime or dinner. Then we would 'yocker'* up at the lintel to create danglers, that would hopefully stretch then fall down the teachers neck.

                    I had good periods and naughty periods. Barely took any notice in lessons but did well in exams and I don't think I put my hand up to answer any questions in my whole school career.
