Sportsman's double...
There was never a huge amount of scandal in my school. Well, unless you count the music teacher having a blatant affair with the headmaster (that one actually made into the Daily Mail!). So when my best friend approached me with a look of scandalized horror on her face quite a few years after we left, I wasn’t expecting much.

A girl in her older sister’s year had, unbeknownst to anyone, had a real thing for our history teacher. A common enough occurrence, save for the fact that the teacher in question was in his early 50’s (she had just turned 16) and looked like a cross between Captain Pugwash and a kiddy fiddler. She had sent him a Valentine’s card, which on receiving, he’d spoken to her about and said that while he was flattered, it was inappropriate for him to have a relationship with one of his students. Fast forward to the summer after her O levels and suddenly, he’s no longer her teacher and they embark on a full blown relationship. Now I’m not one to judge *pauses for gales of hysterical laughter* and you can’t help who you fall in love with, but I think we all found this a bit odd. But, sometimes these things just work and a couple of years later, they got married.

“Well,” I mused, on hearing this, “who would have thought this would happen in my tiny village school.” But no, this wasn’t the end of it. The relationship had gone along nicely for a while until eventually it began to sour. Rumor had it that he’d met someone else and they were going to split up. And indeed they did; soon after, he remarried.

Her Mother.

Now if that’s not an episode of Jeremy Kyle…

I hadn't even considered that. Now I'm going to struggle to get that image out of my head.

Or...
Perhaps the mother was the really dirty one??? Or even worse, there was a period of time where this pervy old fucker was dipping his wick in the daughter one night and the mother the next???

Lets hope he had a high level of personal hygiene, at least... Yuk...

considering
that he was the sort of bloke who looked like he was wearing a mac even if he wasn't, i doubt it somehow.

thing is, he was an ace teacher, despite all his weirdness.
