Strange Day

I saw an old headmaster of mine today with his wife who was also a teacher. I hadn't seen either of them since leaving the school back in 1990 when I was ten years old. I recognised him instantly even though he is 70 now, although I only recognised her because she was with him. I didn't approach them but they looked at me as though they thought they half-recognised me. Then we went our separate ways after a brief moment of reconnecting with a time that is now gone.

What Ross has forgotten to mention is that he was expelled from the school for arson.

I saw my son's former class teacher walking down Charing Cross Road a year after she had left the school. I'm not sure if she noticed me because she was talking to her husband, but she definitely had absolutely fantastic tits.

I did get suspended by him once.....

I was suspended for smoking behind the chapel. Ah, happy days.

Should have been suspended, really, for the time I set off a foam fire extinguisher during a French lesson, but the Headmaster laughed so much at my mime of how the 'accident' happened that he just let me off.

Oddly enough, they never suspended me for the arson, at my Prep school. Just searched me for matches every day.

The benefits of a private education.
