Call The Midwife...

[pastafreak]

another outstanding episode. It seems to get better each week.

[Mamyalynne]

You're absolutely right, each week they find a new heart string to pull. Brilliant!!

[DaisyNonna]

Recorded it as I think it is brilliant.

[tonyav]

Mrs av has recorded it ( as always ) so I'll most probably watch it later in the week. T'is very good so far though.

[jennyjoan]

was good but wasn't as poignant as other nights. Did anybody realise the grandma was the lovelife of Ken (Coronation Street)

[DaisyNonna]

Anyone remember the appallingly inadequate sex lessons in the mid sixties?

[tonyav]

Sort of, Daisy. We were separated, the girls had theirs and we had ours, involved a television in the hall if I remember rightly.
Learned much more behind the bike sheds though ;-)

[DaisyNonna]

All girls' school
Took Biology as extra O level at 17, over age of consent
Maiden lady teacher hooked up film about birth in lunch break and then left.
I passed the exam
No mention of what led to the birth!

[tonyav]

Immaculate conception, Daisy.

[DaisyNonna]

What is immaculate about it Tony?
Can be messy

[tonyav]

Not for us !.

[DaisyNonna]

Condoms?

[tonyav]

Yes they were pretty useful !

[woofgang]

blimey....in my (all girl high church c of e) school, we got proper sex ed, including std’s and birth control at age 11/12 and this was 1964

[Mamyalynne]

I still don't know how it works.

[tonyav]

Magic, Mamya magic.

[pastafreak]

I'm with mamya...still scratching my head over it...;-)
American state school...I can only remember lessons about periods.....

[Mamyalynne]

I can dissect a frog.

[maggiebee]

I did too mamya, and a cow's eye!

[pastafreak]

I'd forgotten about that....:-(

[ferlew]

You're lucky you had lessons about those Pastafreak, I just got tossed a piece of eleastic with hooks, and a funny thing with loops, with the instruction....."Get that on" Thank you Mum.
