LOL, Ron.  When I think of ferrets, I think of Compo.

As for what I did in school - probably the worst was to cut classes and sneak a smoke in the girls room.  But for the most part I was an

                                       Innocent

I blew her up and now she looks a little distorted, doesn't she?  LOL.  I guess that's appropriate!

Yes, Lyn, same as when I went to school, although they referred to it as paddlng, not caning.  They would give you a swat on the butt with a big flat paddle.  Couldn't leave any marks or do any damage, but it was ususally just the thought of it that kept kids in line.

I didn't turn up that often, we used to get caned, well the boys did, the girls got slapped several times on the wrist, I had very toned wrists from all the slaps I got when I did turn up that is.

In my Junior school there was a right old cow for a teacher, if you made ONE spelling mistake she would wrap you across the knuckles or the back of the legs with a ruler. She got so up herself that my Mum had to go up the school and complain.  After all..how can you learn if you never make mistakes??? Oh happy days LOL

I was the world's worst at woodwork. Our class spent all term making coffee tables. At the end of term, the woodwork master lined them up in the front of the class. They were all of uniform height apart from one, which was four inches shorter than the rest and looked like a teapot stand.

The woodwork master called me out to the front of the class and said 'Stear, look at your table, it is 4 inches shorter than the rest, can't you follow simple instructions?'

I then told him tht I had a job to get the legs even and kept cutting bits of each leg to get it to stand properly....and it still wobbled.

He said 'All you have done all term is make a bl***y great pile of wood shavings. from now on, you can make the glue!'

which is what I did!

I was a really good girl at school! Laughing I had problems only at once when i was in 2 form. After excurtion in Russian Museum we were going back to school by bus and i was sitting next to my classmate Roma, we were arguing about something and suddenly he kissed me! My teacher saw it and although everything was absolutly innocent she told my parents about it. They considered it was sweet. Smile
