Hi Mike, we have just been tidying up some of our 92 year old mum's "stuff" that she has collected over the years. Some of the historical WW2 correspondence would not look out of place in a museum. I came across my old secondary school reports which being a Public Boarding School were done every term. I am so glad my parents kept them from me as it turns out I was quite dim!!but they never told me.
There were some priceless hilarious entries from Mr Brown the maths teacher (think of Doc Brown from back to the future for looks) also very accurate with a wooden blackboard rubber, and I quote :-
"He has no aptitude for maths, he is one of the better behaved pupils but with this class that's not saying much!!!"
Followed by this the end of the next term.
"His standard has improved considerably, although its still not very high "
Cant believe he was so savage especially as I was one of the ones who told him when he absent mindedly put his lighted pipe in his pocket and smoke started billowing out. I also like some didn't take advantage of his slight deafness by shouting out "tickle your Balls with a feather sir " and upon being bellowed at with "WHAT did you say BOY" responding with "I said Particularly nice weather sir"
