And before im ranted at that things were better then or not that bad now... I don't care it amused me :D:D:D
 
So true, I was at secondary school in the 60s and can relate to all of this.
 
I have seen similar before
Its all too close to the truth and too sad to be funny............
Ah what the hell :lol: :lol::lol:
 
I well remember being "comforted" by Miss Jones after some minor skin removal from my knees. :love:
45 years later, I suspect my poor knees would be through to the bone by repetition....why do these things happen years before you can truly appreciate them? :naughty:

Alternatively...

Johnny's school is taken to court by one of these 'no win no fee' lawyers for negligence and Johnny receives a fat cheque for £15,000 and the school is infested by health and safety visitors for the next 12 months.
