Which houses are you all in? They would just have been names to me before OB Day, but having located 5's Mons' Board, I've become a Barnes A fan

I'm sure you'll have a great time, Idgie. It looks like an excellent, and happy school.

Re: Becomming a New Dep
And the first blog is up...
I must say, the weather was certainly excellent during IW this year. I certainly made the most of it to Certainly Not Go Up Sharpenhurst On A Sunday Morning! Oh No, Not Me, That's No Allowed!
Was good though.

Re: Becomming a New Dep
There is a truly wonderful picture of Idgie on her Facebook, as I am not her 'friend' I cannot comment but she looks splendid in her uniform. Perhaps it could be posted here so everyone can see it.

Very pretty.
Oh dear , I hear Miss Blench(Latin monster teacher) crying to Jupiter for Diane Parkes and her delightfully unrestrained hair to be contained by a large number of 'Kirby grips'. I never knew what these were but imagine they were symbolic of supressing your individuality. Go Sister...!

Great to see you Idgie, I think that most, if not all, of the Hertford contingent here are just jealous of your chances!
I was expecting to see hair of a wilder colour! I can't see anything wrong with yours but we certainly could not have worn it loose like that!

Re: Becomming a New Dep
Miss Blench was frequently in need of industrial quantities if Kirby grips when she put her hair up before it was really long enough, and had a sort of trailing crest which bobbed up and down when she scuttled about like a demented chicken.nastymum wrote:Very pretty.

Your hair Idgie, great though it is, would have driven most of our staff into a frenzy. Make the most of your god luck!

When I was at CH some of the more daring girls used a hair dye called "Hint of a Tint". It was said that if you left it on too long then your hair would go green.

Re: Becomming a New Dep
Mine never did.
I meant that unfortunately you can't hide in a crowd, not that it is an unfortunate colour, I think it is lovely.
I never did it that colour at school but at uni and after my hair was all colours of the rainbow, not all at once, I wasn't a punk.
