.................... I hate to think how 'useful' your sex education classes were, then !!

What sex education classes?

I echo that - sex education was limited to the bio lab, and usually involved sexual and asexual reproduction of the hydra....

Killer Fry was a Para not a Royal Marine - people have been shot for less! Actually, you can have some fun with this - Paras and Bootnecks make much of 'hating' each other so you can wind both up simultaneously.

Are you a fast runner, then?

Fast runner - no but I'm very brave sitting at my desk in the Ministry. A bit like our beloved PM and his fondness for sending his troops into unnecessary, probably ilegal and ultimately unwinnable wars!

and misspelt - illegal - sorry.

My daughter (Lower Sixth) is refusing to go to sex ed. classes.

She and her (twin) brother had a long discussion one night about how they were non-identical and why, all the way through 'A quetion of sport'

It had me in stitiches, they were 5 and a half, and they were absolutely accurate.

My oldest got a condom wallet in his Christmas stocking when he was 16, his friends thought it was very cool.

Citizen classes consisted of Mrs Ireland ranting on in a rather left wing style aobut the evils of the military, not sure what we were meant to learn but I certainly learnt nothing a bit like RS!!

I'm intrigued as to why ???

Incidently, if you hadn't left a space between 'sex' and 'ed'. and removed the full-stop, thus:-

My daughter (Lower Sixth) is refusing to go to sexed classes.

It would have given a totally different meaning to the sentence ??

She is not going because she reckons that what I haven't told her (and I haven't missed much) she will have more fun finding out for herself.

Fair enough, as last Sunday's dinner discussion was about the sin of Onan I reckon they know enough.

Prompted by some amusingly-shaped root vegetables, no doubt!

I think my son just threw it in as a new topic of conversation when it went quiet.

Not the usual ice-breaker topic... one would have expected upcoming films, the situation in Iran or even the menace of extinction of the polar bear, but Onan.....?

He is a 17 year old boy, and was trying to embarrass his mother
