Enjoy these little gems, from one of my Wife's mates in the U. S. ___________________ A first grade teacher had twenty-five students in her class and she presented each child in her class the first half of a well known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb.

Who said teachers couldn't be censored ???

The late Nell Todd: Head of Art.

A tranquil glade in a complete storm of madness, AND she introduced me to Jaqueline Du Pre. (We made pots and plates together)

Lovers of 'serious' music will remember Jaqueline. A sad loss as such a tender age.

Far better food than normal, Dr. Tommy Scott popping in a couple of times a day, telling jokes. Such a relaxed atmosphere so...

Something familiar her.

MG-Rover bought for a tenner, and now insolvent.

Does the name Phoenix 4 appear anywhere in this letter by any chance ??

I sense the jangling of keys, and the rattling of chains !!

Has the Counting-House Censor struck at last ???

It's very much a case of 'The Good Old Days', sjf01.

I am one of the worlds worst when it comes to talking to our Grand-Children and usually starting a sentence with something like, "You don't know how lucky you are..... Now when I was at school......."
