I had some really horrible things on mine - how about "Ann is a busy body" and "Ann should think more of others and less of herself" and don't let's forget "Ann is noisy on the train" - who told them that I'd like to know - as I said - bastards the lot of em

Hated school myself the head old rolland vaughn
spent the first few weeks caining me for writing
with my left hand--devils child he said and at
four years of age it only means you come to hate
school and close your mind to learning and
become more rebellious as you age---You
wonder how grown and so called well educated
people could have a downer on kids and especially
since such spoils their entire lives---I just
wonder how many budding genius's have been
destroyed through grown up predujuice and
ignorance despite all their education
show me a rebel at school and ille show you
a stupid nursery teacher

Colin,

as you know wasn't a big fan of school myself...and if Mr Jones the head master wasn't long dead...well, won't speak ill of the dead,but.......!

went to a lot of schools as we moved a lot...had a few great teachers, especially of English...will always remember and be grateful..to Mr Taggart (in the Isle of Man) and Mr Grimer (in Cornwall)...kind and 'inspirational' men with a passion for the written word.

Happy new year to you Colin
