This is like watching my parents fight...

Can we all play nicely please? - now give each other a hug- come on- arms open- move closer and embrace-

Only if I can play nicely with you

what have I missed?

Bahtatboy

Ooh, nothing Miss, honest, just a couple of us tripped over each other and cut our lips and bruised our knuckles. Everything's ok, really. <soto voce: I'll have you afterwards in the playground you bastard.>

Yes, some of the conversations in certain threads do remind me of the many playground (and sadly) classroom fights I have broken up over the years, so can we all take the scousers/Camerons/Winner's advice and calm down, calm down

Bluecat- if we were in a school then there would be a few detentions being handed out after fights at break time.

Bahtatboy- see you behind the bike sheds

What happens behind the bikesheds?

I went to an all-boys school

I went to an all-boys school, too, and there was a lot of activity behind the bikesheds. Mainly coz behind the bikesheds was a fence, and behind the fence was the all-girls school.

The all girls school was a couple of miles across town. Had to wait until certain parties / nights out to get stinky fingers.

To be honest, though, I can't recall much other than the smell of hastily-puffed fags and creosote.

Jesus, I couldn't imagine the trouble we'd have been in for smoking at school.

I had two Saturday (4hour) detentions for being a bit of dick in a class (despite successfully proving the teacher was shite...)

We had the grammar school 'you should know better' stick beaten over our heads religiously...expelling all possible avenues of fun.
