I've been tidying up – and gosh how the "book room" needed tidying. I came across this old exercise book from when I was fourteen. I'm writing about "Indoor hobbies" and my English teacher, Mr Walter, a contemporary of W H Auden at Oxford, has described it as: "A little thin." I think he was being rather generous with his mark of 10/20.
Eighteen months later I took, and passed, English language GCE ordinary level and afterwards English literature. I studied English as the main subject of my B Ed degree … I'm sure Mr Walter would have been amazed.
The hereios of the We're Here! group have paid a visit to the School - when is it over? group at the suggestion of #Bea.
Having spent more than fifty years at school from my fifth to my sixtieth birthday, I'm quite glad that it's over for me :)
Stuck for an idea for your daily 365 shot? Try the hereios of the We're Here! group for inspiration.

Pictured are Apache attack helicopters operated by 3 Regiment Army Air Corps during Exercise Talon Gravis. The personnel to the left of the helicopters are REME Armourers waiting to re supply the attack helicopters.
Army aviators have demonstrated the range and power of the punch their Apache attack helicopters can deliver.
Exercise Talon Gravis has seen 3 Regiment Army Air Corps (3 Regt AAC) launch formations of up to eight Apaches from their base at Wattisham Flying Station in Suffolk to find and strike targets on land and at sea more than 300 miles away.
Flying against simulated enemy air defences, missions have ranged from a daylight attack on shipping in the English Channel off Plymouth to hunting armoured vehicles on Salisbury Plain under the cover of darkness.
The Apaches were replenished at a Forward Arming and Refuelling Point (FARP) - the military equivalent of a Formula 1 pit stop – set up at Keevil airfield on Salisbury Plain.
3 Regt AAC’s role is to provide an aviation deep manoeuvre battlegroup – made up of attack, reconnaissance and transport helicopters - to 3rd (UK) Division, the British Army’s high readiness warfighting division.
