Ah, then “Miss Street’s Class” it was, Year One. Remarks about her moustache still apply. I do also remember her being very kindly and very partial to dishing our stars in my direction.

I still can’t remember the name of the nice lady from the Reception Class but it might yet pop into my head…probably when I’m trying to remember some obscure cricket statistic or something.

Imagine you’ve been ushered in with great ceremony.

I get ‘awaiting moderation’.

‘Moderation’ is an awfully funny name for your knighting sword.

Who knew that Henry Wood was such a hero? And with a glorious first class average of 16,94. There can´t be many with a bigger gap than that.

I hope that this pays off as pointless quiz style trivia at some point.

It’s not an automated thing. We have to police the Knights and Dames ourself.

For heaven’s sake Ged, Year 1 isn’t the first year of school. That’s reception. Year 1 is the second year, what you are claiming to know as “Miss Street’s Class”.

Imagine the chaos if kids thought that Year 1 was year one. How would they get through their maths then, eh?
