Bottom in Grammar...because most wallowing at the bottom was because they didn't do any work, but when push came to shove at GCE...everyone sailed through
I always loved the first page of a new exercise book.......

I always enjoyed the first smell of a new glue bottle. You know, the glue that you can rub into a ball.
Eat it with milk or water.
Funny how kids grew up faster then in some areas and kids grow up faster now in other ways, but remain childlike for longer......

Was it Evostick, or something like that?
Aaaaaargh!....hated school milk....always off in summer and frozen solid in winter
I hated school milk, particularly in the summer when it was lukewarm 
Hated radiator warm school milk............

I just can't remember, all I recall was that older bottles had old solid glue around the top, but squeezing some new glue you could rub it into a ball.
