"Excuse me Mr Ross; is 'U' a pass in GCE History?"

"Bugger off and join the army Lavinda"

"Which one sir?"

"Preferably not ours you cheeky bastard"

"Thank you sir"

Mr.Starkie; "Either get your hair cut or leave"
Me; "Goodbye"

Starkie! Hahaha. We found out that he went for a Maths 'refresher course' and we gave him so much grief about it... He was up for Deputy head but lost out to Adams - the weakest strapper in the school. He used to blush if he had to speak to you!

I'm intrigued DD... You don't say, but if you were there at the same time as I was...

Is your real surname by any chance the same as a suburb of Manchester?
Did you (eventually) get your head shaved before you left at 15?

I see a certain Mr A. Chytrin is mentioned in that lot, AKA 'Wild Angus' in the wrestling world :-)

What year mate ?

Me ? No I was your sworn enemy lol, but had loads of mates who went to your school around your year, I just always remember them being absolutely petrified of him, especially when they found out he was an all in wrestler and that was the name he used.

1964 to 1969 for me so we must have rubbed shoulders at some point.Don't know about you but I enjoyed Burnage as a Grammar school,some awful teachers,(Sid Rawlings for example) some great ones, John Chadwick,Alan Hill,(who ended up as my brother-in-law) Jo Potterton.
I'm not who you think I might be but p.m.me and I,ll tell you more.
The hair thing was a bit of crisis,Starkie and Adams decided they didn't like it and issued an ultimatum to the sixth and extra sixth.Most got it cut,5 of us didn't and were asked to "resign",made front page of the Evening News with pictures and everything
