Bryon Dun sent me these thoughts:
"Double dettos" were the norm - as in a spat with Juliet Hamlet (Maths Teacher)
"Hamlet" - where do you think you have been ? (I was late for maths)
"Me" - nowhere particular
"Hamlet" - double detention
There was no appeal - and it meant that night - not a lunchtime at your convenience and with your parents consent.
No one has mentioned - the Gallones Ice Cream van outside the gate at lunchtime (usually Romellia Gallone - who was just a very nice 19 yr old Italian girl in those days - I still chat with her about those days when I see her)
No mentions of the Old Mans Hut on the Racecourse used for sorting out disputes at lunchtimes - or Happy Valley - if you had a girl with you
Regards,
Bryon [They have all been mentioned now]
