I bet like me the experience of an all boys catholic education put you off all religion for life? They actually did me a favour because I realised it was all rubbish.. Both my kids have thanked me for not indoctrinating them with a load of old guff. There'll be no paedophile, baby selling, wicked priests or nuns at my funeral.?

I remember just before I got kicked out of school I was in a classroom and one of my mates let off a real ripper during religious studies. I was laughing my head off and the teacher told me to come to the front and get the cane. Obviously I wasn't going to grass on my mate, so I yawned big guy style and told him to get on with it. When the cane hit my hand I grabbed it and wouldn't let go and grinned at him. The class was in uproar and the teacher went apeshit. He started kicking and punching me, and, just for mischief, I pretended I was going to hit him with the cane. The head and deputy he

Ditto, I somehow passed my eleven plus and was sent to a Catholic posh school. I only lasted a year and I was flung out. Three of the staff later served serious time for buggery. Bunch of sick hypocritical c**ts.

Yes I remember a lot of ex soldiers as teachers. Also remember I had an uncle with shell shock. He used to suddenly stand to attention and go on parade in his head. He would march up and down the living room. He had a permanent shake, his whole body would just react to any noise. When I first started drinking, pubs were full of blokes still living the war in their heads. f**k the good old days, give me central heating, a telly in the bedroom, supermarkets with fresh produce from all over the world and hot water on tap. The only things I miss are the slower pace of life and the lack of commun

Not to mention corporal punishment in schools. Getting the cane was routine: lateness, dirty hands, unpolished shoes or not paying attention were all dealt with by the cane. Truancy was six of the best. Being thick was deemed to be laziness and punished ruthlessly. It was brutal and a lot of the teachers were in the wrong job but at least it taught you that bad actions have consequences. I don't think modern day kids quite get this concept. However I'm not advocating the return of corporal punishment, but there needs to be credible deterrents in schools.

No, Salford mate.

Did the lollipop man tell you that story? Name wasn't Saville was it?

My mam's idea of a good Saturday night was to stick us all in the tin bath and go through our hair with the fine comb. If she caught one she cracked it between her thumb nails. Even as a kid I can remember thinking she was like an alpha chimp grooming us.?

All these experiences of basically poverty and deprivation were character forming, they made me what I am today........a sad, bitter, and twisted old c**t!?

Didn't do our kid's status any good wearing specs, especially with one lens plastered over. He used to take them off soon as left the house and put them on again when he returned just to keep the duchess happy.

We will have to start a sub section on THL which only losers can join.?????

Same here. Jamaican kids were exotic and not bullied. My mam used to touch their hair to feel the curliness. She thought they ate a lot of crusty bread which made their hair curl.

I remember one of my brothers had ringworm and had that blue stuff on his face. Another of my brothers had a cock eye so he had specs with one lens plastered over. Yet another brother had f****n metal splints on his legs because he was bandy. My mam thought all this treatment was great. All the kids got cod liver oil ,orange juice and free milk in the fifties. My mam used to thank the lucky stars for the NHS.

Talk about kids being cruel, there was a lad in our class whose dad was a German POW who had married a local woman. Our school was right in the middle of direct hits from the Luftwaffe, so everywhere was flattened.We held this kid personally responsible and gave him stick from morning till night. When the Munich tragedy happened, we assumed it was a german bomb so he got double stick. We still have reunions but that lad never came to any. He never forgave us.Always felt guilty for that and so do the other lads.

I'm bald as a coot but I'm itching too.??

There's another thread about truant officers, but can anybody remember inspections from the bug nurse? I can remember being the only kid in the class who had the offending creatures in my locks. They sent me home with a fine comb, some tar soap and some ointment. Took me ages to live it down!? Think I'm still traumatised.

We had a bloke with bowler hat,a red face and and whitish rain coat. I can picture him to this day. I came from a family of nine so the feckr had a season ticket to our house. First we would hide under the table, same as we did for the rent man, but the bugger would look through the window and shout at us. My mam would then reel through what was supposed to be wrong with us,scarlet fever, chicken pox, measles impetigo why and he would write it down and f**k off.

I'm not a religious person, a Catholic education saw to that, but isn't there a quotation from the scriptures something like: "judge not that ye be not judged"? The woman has lost 4 kids, she went to the shop to buy groceries. That's all we know, other than she was a single mother and worked for the NHS as a carer. Let's not attack her for possibly being isolated with little family support. She's suffering enough.

Think you've got to do a bit of graft to qualify and pay for a stamp every week. That rules her out.

Maybe you should get some tests on lungs. If you have been damaged cos of previous employment. You could claim compensation.

I've had it for a week. Feel weak, depressed. I'm an absolute yellow snot factory. Think Greyman is right, we've all been isolating and our immune systems haven't been needed. Then, as soon as we get out and about this virus sees its chance. Its a corker of a cold. Hope to f**k it doesn't keep coming back like yours tatblisters.

It's not too much to ask/ demand that the UK spends as much as other comparable countries with similar GDP as ours. . Of course the tories will say 'you can't just throw money at it, but you can. It's a matter of political priorities. Other countries fund their health systems properly why can't we? Always remember the tories hate the NHS. They were opposed to it right from its birth. They would love to sell it off to their mates and are doing so behind the scenes. Blair and Brown, for all their faults and disastrous mistakes, spent serious money on the NHS and state education.

My sons got a half cross collie and it's spot on. Calm and relaxed in the house. Bit of luck involved when you buy any dog. There's a rule though, good uns never make old bones.

No, Benny from Crossroads would be a natural for Dave.
