Off Topic Zebedee's Yard official opening today...

Shame to see it go, had some good memories. Class of 99'

 

has something gone?

 

Well, the schools gone for a start, wake up!...or have I been whooshed???

 

1984-1986, shame to see the school go.

 

Don't worry people, there's a new, better school and you still have your memories.

Just hope they really do utilise the space for more than just a car park.

It's not been done on the cheap. So chances are high.

 

Looks like the flagpole in front of the chapel has been removed.

 

OK who wrote their name in Chapel?

 

In the late 60's? You wouldn't dare MT, discipline was controlled by a physocopathic ex submariner, Mr ''Bomber'' Lancaster - any form of anti-social ****ery was soon clamped down on.

 

I got the pleasure of Lotty's line and 500 morse for my efforts!

 

Harsh, but still better than being bounced round the gym by Bomber

 

Ha, sounds a brutal character, think thats whats schools miss nowadays is teachers with character, they come across more robotic, through no fault of their own I hasten to add, but with certain criteria and goals to achieve the art of teaching has changed.
Even in the 80's it was pretty much a case of do you understand? No. So the question was said louder with NO as the answer still, then THWACK.....a good smack with a slipper, ruler or a paperweight been launched at your head, suddenly the answer would be YES SIR, I understand.
Somethings change for the better I guess.

 

thanks. i tried to glean if from the info in the thread but felt ill-informed.
