MM Links December [Week 2]
44 Answers
Welcome to the second week in the reign of “Princess Di” (aka grannydi) as I continue with my personal history covering the next three decades of my life.
I spent my teenage years at a Girls’ School in the wilds of Bedfordshire, well insulated from the male population. It is a sad indictment for me to have to say that the highlight of our week was sometimes the visit of a MALE teacher to take us for Physics and Chemistry at “A” level. I proved to be reasonably good at Sport and was chosen to play for the school Lacrosse and Hockey teams. One advantage of playing for the teams was that we got cake with our team tea (quite a luxury as normally we only got cake on Sundays). We were well fed (even if we did get the odd ‘extra meat ration’ in our cabbage and salad). All our vegetables came from the walled kitchen garden, which the pupils were expected to keep weed free.
