I was at a dinner party the other night and a friend told me that as a 7 year-old boy at public school he airmailed a letter to his (ex-pat) parents with a little bag attached containing his tears...................

Did his parents ever wonder why?

Of course if I was a heartless bastard I would have said:
His father opens the mail. "That little bastard has sent us more wet paper. I'll mail the head to flog him again."

But I'm not.

Actually that was quiet sad. Seriously. Poor kid.

We also had a teacher called Gaffney (see it's all coming back to me) who used to send children to be beaten for sneezing. True.

And this bastard was a highly respected former head teacher.

But he probably had more children beaten than any other teacher in the area.

He was a nutter.

At our school we had Brother McGeady.

We called him "Bullshit Bill". He claimed to be good friends with Pele and Dave Sexton. Possibly the only time those two have been associated together.

Bullshit Bill also claimed to be good friends with the Pope.

However Bullshit Bill ended up being arrested during a raid at the parish house which uncovered certain photos etc.

I wonder if Pele and Dave ever visited him in prison.

Obviously this happened way before the days of paedophile rings (not anal by the way!) on the internet , Earl showing his very ancient (back) side.

Actually, not that ancient. Bullshit Bill just never updated his tall tales. Pele was impressive, but this was in the days of Maradona. Dave Sexton? Didn't he manage a very underachieving side? Now what was their name again?

Earl of Grey, you're absolutely correct, it was a dark part of my association with a club in the North West and I have actually, with help from Krishnamurti, obliviated that era out of my very inactive grey cells. There was also an even darker period which caused major irritations for those who had pledged their footy love to the same club, a Scottish twat, who was named after that infamous cartoon serial figure called Top Cat = TOPmy DoCATi. Krishnamurti and my "Muy Pobre" self are still working on the case, rather more "VOIDS" required!
