| School Incident of note..... Mr Barry (aka the brick shithouse) was as usual late for assembly and he rushed into the gym, unfortunately for him Stan Wilson had given the floor a damn good wax and clean over the weekend, and then put a large coit mat down to protect the floor... He came in at such a speed that the inevitable happened...I dont know how but he did a forward airborne somersault and landed as if he had been body slammed by Big Daddy... as you can imagine the place nearly collapsed as did we with laughter,... just to add insult to injury Steve "Chunky" Martin to inflame the incident further said "Please Sir the floor's slippery"... This even raised a stifled laugh from Mr Herbert. As you can imagine severe retribution was applied as soon as he got us back to the classroom especially to poor old Chunky Martin. |
| Trivia Quis; How did Mr Herbert aka the Polaroid Swinger get to be known as Dacious? |

| I must say that Clive Messruther and myself have both expressed a sigh of relief that not only our class were bloody nutters, it was obviously a school trait as our good friend Bob Delaney has shown with his content on this page, more to come...... |
