Possibly should go in the ‘Top Tips’ section…
Hey kids! Got an exam coming up that you haven’t studied for? Fed up with school in general? Take advantage of the ‘War on Terror’!

Simply take an old transistor radio, rip it apart, then attach bits of it to packed lumps of plasticine and an alarm clock, before placing it in a bin in the playground.

Then call the school, speaking through a ‘Darth Vader speech synthesiser’ and affecting a crap Muslim accent, to warn of the ‘impending bomb threat to the infidel westerners’.

You can then enjoy the afternoon off while half the netball court is destroyed in a controlled explosion. Good old Al Qaeda :)

Of course, in my day you had to use the IRA – but the result was much the same...not that I ever did anything like that...ahem

Just be aware
plasticine carries fingerprints really easily
