I remember the 'Ink Wells' and Italic Pens............

Me too Syd And wow betide if you left blots 

I was a good girl I woz, never blotted my copy book once....honest!

Never stuffed the inkwell with blotting paper then Syd 

Or tried to blow up the chemistry lab?😏

Or set fire to the rubber connector on the Bunsen burner 

you lot were terrible-good girl me

Well there was the time, whilst smoking in the loo, curiosity got the better of me and I satisfied it by seeing what a roll of crispy loo paper looked like went lit from one end!

As a Methodist I signed the pledge when I was 12 .....broke it big style when I was about 17
