Our primary school headmaster didn't do assembly every week,
But when he did, it was exactly the same every sodding time.
Christian mumbo jumbo followed by the same piece of music, during which he asked us to imagine ourselves in the scene while he sat by the tiny record player with his eyes shut.
Mendelssohn's The Hebrides, Op. 26, also known as Fingal's Cave overture.

And woe betide any child foolish enough not to pretend to be entirely captured by this as even with his eyes apparently shut, he could hear and see every fucking thing we did or said.

This is actually a fine piece of music in the romantic style but has been totally ruined for me because Phil Broom got me thrown out for laughing at his underarm fart noises.

He was a big kid back then.
I never realised he was 45 years old when we first met in primary school.

Also, he's dead.
