I was always scared of going up eventually to a class run by the Headmaster (let me call him Mr. E). Well, little did I know I had no need to worry, as my Gran held a trump card on him! You see, the school Office in those days was a small hut, shed basically, back in those days. On one occasion, I was due to go off in the afternoon for a dental appointment, so my Gran came to collect me. Quite rightly she checked in with the Office first, but opened the door of the office to find Mr. E and his Secretary in a compromising situation!!! From there on he was always very nice to me and my family. It was years later that my Gran told me what had happened....wish I had known that before, I wouldn't have spent so much time worrying about going to his class, {laugh}.

The town you grew up in, Primary School, Ann Hyde
Looking back to the days of my first school, Netley Marsh, has brought back memories that's for sure.
