GW: Can we stop this gossiping  -1-0 - and chattering  -1-1 - - . It's very difficult to teach with this infernal non-stop gossip  -2-1 - and chatter  - 2-2 . Every time it's gossip, gossip, gossip  - 5-2! -  and chatter, chatter, chatter  - woo 5-5 -  - . So if you can save your gossip  - 6-5 - - and chatter  - 6-6 - - until the break, I shall continue with my description of the human digestive tract.  - Whooping, cheering and banging of fists on the tables -  - .RIGHT!STAYTON!! gnnn..gnnn...gnnn GET OUTSIDE!!

As a young girl... -stifled laughter -  - ...my wife was brought up in the Franco-German border province of Alsace. She was an Alsation... -  unsuppressed outburst of laughter, round of applause and barking noises - - ...WELL REALLY!!

I would like a "contact"

Did anyone watch the World at War? Mmmm - those Nazis were capable of such barbarity. I have some books with photos if anyone is interested.

Well Really

Not surprisingly he lost his hair?! How DARE you!! After I stood up for you in the staffroom. GET OUT! GET OUT! GET OUT!

Lost a significant amount I'll grant you - but what's gone from the top now grows three-fold in my ears and nose. And on a geological time-scale this is of little consequence.

Kevin Havill was best man at my wedding and godfather to Ben. Haven't seen Kevin since 1998 though. Shared a flat with Ian Peters and Nigel someone .. for a year...  bad mistake !! We used to go out a lot together at the time with John Harris.

Went out with Paul Bradshaw's sister for a year in 1975.

Now living in rural Dorset surrounded by cows, fields, farms, muck and cowshit. Very clean except for the roads.

I live NW London married Johanna  nee MacDougall  twin boys of 3 1/2  -       Gus & Hector.

I still see Graham Brown who is living in Spain and stays in touch with Rob Bell. Also bumped into Phil Bruce on the tube about a year back. Apart from that I don't see anyone from those days.Do you remember Knight who used to faint in biology if anyone said the word blood, Petocx ? -  who was caned for backfilling the gas tap with water so that when demonstrating the bunsen burner it extinguished the match always thought that was very witty...

I would just like...I would just...I would  - ( voice of Chris Cuffe -) -  "wind him up somebody".

...and you go mad ! 30 years I have been trying to forget what you bastards did to me - i only stopped pulling my earlobe 2 years ago.

I am off to reverse the coach - at least nothing can wrong with that.

I have a fine collection of faded cuttings from the Financial Times which demonstrate the risks to civilisation posed by International Socialists infiltrating MultiNationalCorporations. the best way to defeat this threat is to vote Liberal

JC: Sir, would you punish me for something i didnt do?

I had lunch a couple of weeks ago with Stuart Fermor - hadn't seen each other for 30 years!!! We cooked up an idea to have a reunion for all those who left in 71, so I've sent messages to all those on the list on FR. I've had 7 replies - 6 who can make it to London on 9th Feb - details TBA.

Would you like to sponsor me in an all night marathon?

Mussolini was a man of exceptional sexual energy   stares smiling blissfully out over the tennis courts > and was not averse to 30 minutes on the rrrug between meetings with his secrrretary.

Did anyone see the World at War last night?

I attach two photos, one a school pic probably 1971/2 as I am wearing a sixth form blazer. Mum sent me to school in the blue blazer in the Lower sixth because she wouldn't buy another maroon one for just one year. I am pleased to say that Dogs Akers got the rough edge of mum's tongue and she clearly won the day over that one!

I did, indeed, urge you to become captains of industry, leaders of men mould breakers.

Sadly, you seem to have become breakers of industry and men of mould

How dare you!! I'll sue - whoever you are. This whole affair reeks of... bastardy.

In fact he was rumoured to have brought the Czarina to a higher plain of..of..sexual fulfilment... - email address:        trails off with a vacant stare and the thin trace of a smile - Subject: - . Now, where was I?

DGSA: For God's sake man, you're in a staff meeting.

GN: Oh dear, how...monstrous of me. Will I have to be punished?

After 30 years of being on the "cured" list i happened across this site and now i am having to undergo severe Electro Shock therapy to batten the hatches down over the memories.

Will SOMEONE please had out the books on comparitive religions without dropping the WHOLE pile of them on Martin?

Back in 30 years...

What is more, this is abuse on a monumental scale. If I hadn't sprained my wrist in a "sporting accident" I'd have punished you personally. FROM:

His name was Tony Farrell and he never broke any of mine.

Our brand was Naked Man and featured a Saint like outline of a naked man on the side of the packet -The slogan was - " Cigarette ? " " I'd love a naked man "
 

Gunner - God know's where he is - Oxted probably.

The school trip to paris 1968 - while the CRS stormed the sorbonne we were of course engaged in more weighty matters ...bailey was sick - what's wrong with him boy - don't know sir - why was he sick ? - don't know sir - it must have been the whisky sir!
the same trip where the tall ginger haired maths / geography master who lived in hitchin  -  name escapes me -  cut his head while shaving by the simple expedient of sticking through the window...

What do you mean Bignall " you don't want to play on saturday " - don't you know what an honour it is to play for the school! and you are turning it down - it is disgraceful!! I know boys who would give their right leg to play for the school .....

Am I alone in remembering the mad Welsh music "teacher" who indoctrinated us by making us sing "Men of Harlech"all the time. Then occasionally drawing two chalk-lines 3 metres apart at the front of the class-room."Bend over boy. You weren't singing...Have you met the "tickler"  - email address:        brandishing an old plimsoll - Subject: - .When I hit you you'd better jump over that other line or I'll hit you again!". He also had at least 2 broken fingers and therefore constantly played the wrong chords. Thank the lord we are a musical nation!FROM:

Does anyone know the score of the game.

It was 4-1 to arsenal

Akers:Matthews, if God had wanted us to wear flared trousers he would have given us flared legs.
Matthews: Yes Sir, but if God had meant us to smoke a pipe he would have given us a chimney in our heads.

AP holds on to a table chuckling uncontrollably whilst his class sit there stony-faced. Somebody sneezes and his skin peels off. Then somebody coughs and his skeleton collapses. From the pile of skin and bones a voice trembles on "Oh what a classic that was."
