I sometimes think its best to leave it all behind, people are different, they are really strangers after all these years, just my opinion.
Would be interesting to hear any stories about reunions though.

I've forgotten about school, altho one member on here was the year below me and he's a decent guy, another was a few further behind that, didn't know him.
Most of the new people i've met has been thru here and across the way

It was still in effect when I was at primary, but got phased out when I was in
primary 4 or 5. This Maggie Thatcher look-a-like bitch gave me the belt for
no reason one time.

You actually did not need to have done anything to get the belt. One teacher I had just belted everybody, the whole class, if she was at all ticked off. Some reasons for that I can remember was she "heard whispering" and worst of all was, one boy arrived late so she decided to "teach" us all to be on time. The same person used to take maddies and fling the chalk duster (not a soft cloth but attached to wood) at folk who were stammering over their reading. She had rules about how we would sit at our desk ie no elbows on desk, when she was talking we had to sit with arms folded and if you forgot, well she would just run at you and drag you out (screaming n shouting in your face the whole time)n and an "example" would be made of you. She got away with what now would be criminal child abuse. I have rellies who moan about childrens behaviour today in the classroom but nothing could be worse than that womans, she was abusive. Full stop. ps there was no point in complaining to other teachers/parents as it was always assumed that children`s bad behaviour needed and caused the discipline.

One teacher primary school (thornwood) used to give 'black medicine' to you if you had a loud voice, never had her as a permanent one, but when a teacher was sick we got divvied up amongst other classes and got sent to her once, scared me shitless

Ah! schools sports, I loved cross country running ... all the way home for an early lunch. Only the suckers went back to school
I also liked to attend Smoking School held in the bogs during the playtime breaks. I learned some advanced smoke ring techniques from the bigger lads and how to make a three skinnner with added roach.

What was "black medicine " ? I never cease to be shocked at the sheer terror that children were subjugated to in the name of education in the not so distant past. There was a culture of abuse which was never recognised but must surely have had an impact on whole generations.

School was awright in later years.... 5th & 6th year when the teachers arent such bastards
Hated PE.... see, cause I did'nt like football, I was automatically pegged as a non-sporting entity. One of the boys that thought themselves as sport god was going to fight with me because I brought him down with a perfectly fair tackle while playing rugby. Or surprised everyone during softball by sending the ball out of the field onto the street.... teacher trying to bowl lightly at first but got wise to it.

Hated school got an 'O' Grade in Dogging it...
Even got the obligatory certificate to prove it ..."Get this signed by your teachers"
Yer for the first week then dig out the tracing paper....
Then came the 'O' Grade in forgery...
Always remember getting dragged into a meeting and getting told i would never amount to anything and i should aspire to be like him (HEEDY)
Funny as i met him a few years ago selling big issues in Sauchiehall street...
Chemistry was a barrel of laughs never took it too serious spent most of the time i was actually in class getting excluded and told to sit in the hall.
Pissed that teacher off big time by actually passing the 'O' Grade.
Hated the place hated the bullies and hated the teachers...
Actually went along on the day they started to rip the place down.
Been derelict for a few years now but rumour has it they are building some sort of village for some sporting event on the former site.
It will be haunted by the ghosts of the kids tortured there on a daily basis.

Moshi was played by making three small holes in the ground in a straight line about a yard apart. You threw an old penny to try and land it in the first hole then the second and third. On the way you could gain advantage over your opponent by their penny or knocking it out of the way by hitting it hard with your penny.
The winner got the opponent's penny.

The same thing happened to me. Whilst playing crab football I assaulted the best football player in the school to win the ball. He wasn't happy and chased me out the school every day for about a week.
