Jesus - he was 26 or 27, but looks older than me.

I'm guessing that should read 1947-2004
Posted by WarHead, 23:59, 18th May 2004:
 
Unless he died of premature aging.

I assumed it was the time span he taught at the school...

Grim? Any light to be shed?

He taught from 1977 - 2004.

I quite liked old Taff - what did he do to you, Cal?

:shurgs: Probably more to do with the school than him - he was an English teacher.

You know what SUS is like when your not in the 9th year, though. Computing lessons in the science labs with a french teacher =/

i dont even know what SUS is...

I had a rubbish art teacher/form teacher... he hung himself. and my favourite history teacher died of a heart attack.. teaching is a dangerous proffession

I found out my old french teacher dropped down dead a couple of years ago. He was an oddbod.

"dont", "proffession"

And none too succesful in your case...

Sorry. I couldn't resist it...

i'm dying of a cold and being forced at gunpoint to work till 7.30.. i also went out for lunch and my jacket potato was fairly inedible. also, last night i had about three bits of pasta and a tiny piece of chicken for dinner. it's fair to say i'm having concentration issues. i knew i'd spelt profession wrong but it was too much effort to correct.
besides, you're forgetting my immunity to the laws of S.P.A.G.

My German teacher drowned
My Art Tutor died of cancer
My Headmaster died of Motor Neuron Disease
My IT Tutor died in a car crash

I don't have much luck with teachers

you should come with a health warning.
Posted by Alfie, 17:41, 19th May 2004:
 
Yeah, nobody try to teach me anything. I'm telling you, it's not worth the risk.

SUS = Sharnbrook Upper School (our school)
