Having the stick/dap in school

[Moodybluebird]

What was the most petty 'crime' you committed in school for which you received the stick/dap or the like ?

For me it was only getting 15 out of 20 questions right in an ad hoc geography test. The teacher told us anyone getting less than 17 would get the stick and he was true to his word.

Secondly, me and a schoolmate committed the heinous crime of running down a school corridor to get to the next lesson.

Life was brutal then !

Mr Angle(real name!) my geometry teacher had a hell of a swing on him when he was giving out the dap. Had it a few times off him, probably for not listening. Bloody hurt.

That teacher would get 12 months behind bars at least in our current insane society

Stealing 70p from the church congregation collection, the school was attached to the church. Pinching a box of smiths crisps from the tuck shock stock room. Climbing on the school roof and pinching an almost brand new Adidas Tango football. Putting a grass snake in Lisa roberts draw. Bringing a baby crow to school and hiding him in the toilets. And that was just junior school. In high school i was caned twice, in my first year, it was banned for the second year, my crimes were pea shooting the French Teacher, proper shot, right between the eyes, it didn't help when she pretended to be concussed The other incident was for fighting in Woodwork. Suspended countless times, thrown out at fifteen. I was a disaster in school.

We had a sadistic load of Brothers (failed priests), pretending to be teachers in St Illtyds.

One, Brother Luke, would walk up and down between the desks and if you were doing a sum wrong, would lash the back of your hand with a leather strap.

I've never seen a Nun's ****, to know if it's horrible or not

Dinner ladies were a bit nasty, so i'm with you on that one. Usually a pupils mum or Auntie, preferential treatment when the desert was dished out.
