Beating The Retreat

Quote of the moment: "This is the third fire alarm in 2 days! Will SOMEONE teach the yr 9 how to make toast?!"

Went into school today with my 'rents to see the aforementioned beating of the retreat, aka a Marching Band doing their thing on the front... Was quite pr0... It was the Band of the Parachute Regiment, and they had the Regimental Mascot... A Shetland pony called Pegasus... LOL.

Afterwards I wandered around on the Front and talked to Will T, Skippy and my sister... Then went over to Elwyns and talked to the "lads", as Rob would say... Henry Cullen, Will Richards, Pratto, Burrett (sporting an injury as usual - a black eye from Rugby already)... Prill, don't get too jealous though, cos A: His new, Xmas ordered haircut is poo, there's a fringe across the middle of his forehead, and B: The fire alarm went off after about 2 minutes... So everyone headed outside, which gave me a chance to inspect the newbies... There's a load of TINY Yr9... At least 4, Will Devitt sized... Plus Blackwell Min, who makes up for them by being rather rotund... And there's a new LVI German called Arnold - Seriously... :D
