School trips
How many school trips did you go on whilst at CH?
I went on a one week history trip to Florence which was excellent. We visited Assissi, Siena, Pisa, Perugia & Lucca that I can remember.
The other trip I went on was for two weeks on the Malcolm Miller I volunteered to do this in a moment of madness. It was just after the great storms of 1987 and we passed through a force 9 gale. We were all on the side of the deck throwing up! Although I am glad I did it now I don't think I'd ever want to do it again. (Sorry DBTS) We sailed from Southampton to Jersey, St Malo and then to Fowey and back to Pompey. Unfortunately me and a fellow CH pupil missed the boat back to the ship at Fowey after an evening out and got summonsed to the captain He made us pull the anchor chain in when we left Fowey as punishment

Yes a thread about a week (and many posts from you) ago was commenting on Mr P being the most prolific poster and how many of his posts were one word, mainly in Mallets Mallet, but I suppose that following his previous post regarding the trips he had taken we can allow him the odd one word answer (or perhaps enigmatic would be better than odd)
"If a man speaks, and there isn't a woman to hear him, is he still wrong?"
