Do people do projects that don't involve google-cut-paste any more? What fine tat have you glued together for teacher?

Back in the days of GCSE, where all you can think of is buggering off home and girls (2 years down the line, this still hasnt changed), i stupidly decided to take R.M. (basically woodwork for those out of the loop).
For anyone that know, the coursework you have to do takes a very long time indeed and involves many, MANY A3 pages of drawings (not my strong point) and bullshitting (a sort of strong point). Obviously doing it on a computer was the best way to do it.
I kept my lovely project on my USB stick (I had even set the stick's name as my own) and rarely backed it up.
17 pages about a wooden steamroller later and i accidentally leave my USB stick in one of the Tech department's computers. BIG mistake. I didnt know this at the time, but the head of tech Mr Sturman (a.k.a. the sturminator, Der Furher, cunt etc.) was a self centered, thoughtless twunt.
Instead of saying putting a note round saying "blue memory stick found in tech department", he just deleted everything off it (including my coursework) and used it for his own needs.
I only found out about it when i noticed it plugged into the Boxford(one of those computery cutty machines)'s computer. To which he feigned innocence. Bastard.
I managed to get it completed in the end and turned out quite nice i think (if find a picture i'll link it).
Apologies about lack of funnies etc, no apologies for length.

Plus, a large collection of brightly coloured flash drives for me! oooo pretty!
