In the 3rd year juniors (which is now called Year 5) we were asked to discuss among ourselves whether we'd rather go to Norwich or to London for the class's day out. Nearly everyone wanted to go to London, and I could see that most of the planned activities there sounded far more interesting than what we'd be doing in Norwich. However I still wanted to go to Norwich because one of the activities was a tour of the Anglia TV studios (which sounded absolutely wonderful to me).
I spent ages working on my friends (and even my enemies) to persuade them that the Anglia TV tour clearly outweighed all of the London attractions put together. I was successful and the vote was overwhelmingly in favour of Norwich.
A few weeks later we were told that the school had been able to confirm all of the planned activities in Norwich (such as visiting the Castle Museum) with the exception of the Anglia TV tour, which had had to be cancelled. I was close to tears, and persona non grata with the rest of the class for the remainder of the term ;(
