He was going on a school excursion and I thought that his miniskirt was the reason for his teacher's murmurs. It turns out she was murmuring because the bus driver was an ex-butcher who was missing his right thumb. Rumours abounded on the bus that he had lost his thumb through an incident involving a turnip and a guillotine. So it seems that the education your son is receiving is entirely relevant (in our lives at least)Sharpest Pencilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08703706723793728866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8774807226689612975.post-49782239082782477352009-09-18T23:13:03.439+10:002009-09-18T23:13:03.439+10:00Oh you do make me giggle, or is it the education s...Oh you do make me giggle, or is it the education system ?
