Just as we were to begin our last two years at high school, the "bad kids" school down the road was closed down and some of the kids sent to our school for their final two years (although to be honest looking back I don't think they were much worse than we would have been). Some of their teachers came too. Much "hilarity" was to ensue:

* Six foot lengths of dowelling sanded down to about the size of a pencil, sharpened, and used to stab people in the arse.
* Availability of drugs increased, this was a benefit actually :) (although notwithstanding the story further down).
* Someone stole ammonia (or so they thought) from the science storeroom and sprayed me in the face with it (I later heard, to "try it out"). Don't think it was though, as it had no effect. They got caught during the next raid and expelled.
* Some of the new kids got caught doing the world's most blatant sneaky drug deal (in front of a window while some teachers were watching).
* Peter Thompson punching the PE teacher in the face because he didn't want to run the 1500m. Didn't see him again after that. Shame really, seemed a decent bloke (n.b. Peter, not the teacher, who was a prize cock).
* Some sort of well dodgy drug/protection racket where a deal would be arranged "on credit" only for it to go wrong and the money to be paid up anyway under threat of gang violence. One of the kids responsible for this actually ended up face first in a bonfire about four months later, the little cuntsniff.
* Metalwork lessons with flying metal objects. It was reasonably commonplace to be doing a spot of welding or whatever when a hammer, spanner or random lump of metal would fly past your (or someone else's) ear. 'Twas like some sort of extreme, retarded tetris. God knows how nobody got seriously hurt (although someone got a nasty burn from hot glue on his neck).

Thinking about it, it was pretty shit at the time, but with the benefit of experience I chuckle about it now...
