One of the minor perks of my 11 plus scholarship was that, each year, the State paid for me to have a variety of stationery goods from the School Shop: several folders, some pens and pencils, various other things I've forgotten, and a pristine new Oxford Set of Mathematical Instruments. Despite having had a new one every year for six years (I didn't know about it the first year) I don't have a complete set left; though I still have several of the tins containing assorted oddments like loose nuts and bolts, either here or sitting in a box of stuff in my parents' loft.
So now that I have my nice new protractor, set squares, and pair of compasses, I am prepared for whatever the autumn may bring
This is worse than the finals dream.
That I endured the other night.
