me and my mates has been lurking here for a few dys and what we says is this – cane them kids in schcolls what do no behave. we went to a cumunity school after they baned the cane and if we had had a teacher like george in charge then we would have learned a bit more. any way me and my mats got our gittars out and we made up a song about it what we call BRING BACK THE WACKING It got a sort of funky beat and Big Ray does a sort of riff on the base we hopes you all like it.

Bring back the wacking Bring back the smaking
Lets have a bit of order in the classes
Lets give them pane Bring back the cane
and put it across their arses

If George had been a real teacher, a lot of little boys would have had very sore bottoms.

Some of them would have received corporal punishment, too!

Making any post here which suggests cp is right will automaticly get you attacked. Surprise, we suddenly have a Social Worker. Will it be a police officer next, high court judge. Trouble is all these postings are from one or two people using differing names.

George

No, George.

Making a post saying that CP is right won't get you attacked.

It's trying to justify the publishing of dubious child-related material by disguising it as the memories of a 90-year old ex-headmaster that'll get you attacked.

And, on the subject of judges and police officers, I hope your hard drive contains nothing you wouldn't want a judge or a police officer to see?

Carl, I hope that you and your 'mats' play your 'gittars' better than you write. Have you considered asking 'base' player Big Ray to type your next message?
Love from Sandra.

The cane has long been removed from the classroom and relegated to the pages of history books. It has gone for good - except at a small New Zealand private church school, where, I understand, the parents do the whacking on behalf of the school.

Here is a photo of my old P.E. teacher who was no slouch with the plimsoll :
