Awesome teachersTeachers have been getting a right kicking recently and it's not fair. So, let's hear it for the teachers who've inspired you, made you laugh, or helped you to make massive explosions in the chemistry lab. (Thanks to Godwin's Lawyer for the suggestion)

OooH, I Know, Matron...From primary school and onwards, I was ridiculed, caned, kicked out of some classes and mocked because I couldn't, not even to save my life, write in copper-plate. Most of my classes, you weren't allowed to use a ballpoint - it was a fountain or cartridge pen. But English Lit. - even those "tools of the devil" weren't allowed and it was nibs 'n' ink.
Cheers

Oooh yup, fountain pens.We were told that one couldn't 'write' with anything else, as if 'writing' were a special process, different from merely 'expressing oneself on paper by forming words with an instrument by hand.' Or something.
