Fucking lolz at this!

By 6th year I was a veritable angel, if you exclude streaking, pulling down a set of lockers, being shit faced from nights out most weeks, getting shit faced on whisky on my last day and falling into a vending machine when being questioned by some teacher, punching some kid in the face for being wide, continual bad behaviour on the bus and stealing the clocks from the assembly hall and concourse, legging it to my mates car being driven away as the rector stood in front of us and making him run out of the way.

Was that when me and barclay and others tried to turn the lounge into a night club? Haha. Turning the lockers around, putting hendy on a chair at the door charging for entry and drinking warm vodka on the minging couches.

Also, although this is bound to be severely frowned upon we made a swatstika out of the yellow and blue assemly hall chairs after a battle of the bands once... I had a photo on my old phone, but it won't switch on, so I can't post it up. You need to see it to understand the true genius of what we did, despite the emblem. Just think about the rector doing a school assembly and looking out over the room and realising what was in front of him.

I always forget about this until I see marc young drunk and he reminds me! Possibly one of the funniest things to remember just for the significance of the symbol really.

Apart from remembering all of those I remember a few others from school.

Two that spring to mind instantly involve me and my mate Barclay trying to get the prefects lounge shut as many times as we could in one week. One of them involved me piling everything ( I actually mean EVERYTHING) in the room in one corner like a giant jenga! It lasted for ages until one guy pulled a chair out and it collapsed.

The other main one for the lounge was when we built the fort of almightiness which was essentially just another tower of almightiness but sideways. Both got the lounge shut for long periods of time.

Taking some guys shoe and stuffing it into a vending machine. The ones where you put your money in and open the wee sliding door to get the food out. I figured you could put something inside to replace the sandwich. Oh how I laughed as he had to pay £1.70 to get his shoe back.

Having a huge wrestling match in the prefects lounge and discovering that Kenny is infact a mountain of strength as I got my ass kicked. Having a game of football in the 4th floor common room using two filing cabinets for goals. (so noisy!)

Anything that involved snow and people who were weaker than me/far enough away from me so as not to catch me.

Allergo playing botb in the school and causing a "your a wanker" chat at a teacher. (matt did it).

Im pretty sure me and Potter could go on for days with dumb things weve done.

yeah, my school never had a wrestler, well... not any teacher openly admitted it. I'm sure a few enjoyed bare arse boxing though!

pathetically hilarious

HAHAHAHAHA he was a fucking roaster of a man. He destroyed a shelf full of beakers and test tubes as folk were winding him up one day.

Most of the science teachers at LHS were fucking ballbags. Mr Ure, Mr Massey, Mrs Boyd to name a few. Mr McLeod was king however. I made his life a living hell in 4th year. Mr Frame, Mr Spurgeon and Funky Fergie were ace however. As was Mr Mackay but that was because he used to sit about 3 rows behind me at Ibrox.

Indeed many of the teachers at LHS were an insult to education.

Daveoftheband may be a bit young to remember but the legendary Mrs Blythe in English gave the worst punny's. A3 paper. Both sides. Small handwriting. Or she made you spend the period writing your name on the blackboard. Or made you sing in front of the class. Ace teacher however. Think she's dead now which is a shame as she was one of the most genuinely caring teachers ever. I got utterly trashed with her at my mates wedding.

Incidentally do you remember Mr Winton? He was also hated by the masses but he was into Iron Maiden so we got on fine. Mr Burns (maths) was a fucking little prick aswell. Challenged pupils to fights all the time until one of the harder 6th years threatened to fuck his life up. Mr Howe and me had a very deep hatred for each other. I spent alot of time in his office for a variety of reasons and most of the time it ended with either a shouting match or me fucking off home.

Funniest times...There was a PE teacher who was a right cockseeker who i had for PE in 6th year. They made the class from the entire senior rugby team which was good as we got some more practice time. He managed to bring me down with a tackle which he became elated about. Two minutes later i ran through him and almost broke him in half. Ace.

Our school bus was constantly being stopped due to rowdy behaviour.

Mr. Saunders was a Chemistry teacher at Monifieth High.

I remember once I bunked off for an afternoon after a sports day or something and my rege teacher pestered me for a note for the rest of the year, even after the summer holidays she was pestering me for it. I am fairly pally with her son and wouldn't be surprised if she would still ask me for it, because she is a bitter old cow.

Jokes on her though, in second year her son moved away to America to live with his Dad because he'd had enough of her.

Also, once she phoned my parents at home because I got a punny for defying the 'one way system'* and she wanted to make sure I hadn't thrown it in the Dichty Burn (which was common practice for most). I am sure that's against some law or a code or at least I hope so.
She also tried to stop me going to school gym at lunch on a mondays, wednesdays and fridays because she wanted me to do french revision for my standard grades, I have no idea, maybe it's because she drove her son to the other side of the earth because she was a cow?

*the class I was walking to was right next to my rege room, if I hadn't walked that way I would have had to walk all the way around the school and be late for my class no doubt, which was a detention if it happened more than thrice in a week.

also, the rammy at last period on the friday at the english corridor doors.

oh, and plastering up a picture of the head of HE (who was huge) holding bag of flour or something and putting. 'MRS. GRANT, STEALING HOME EC SUPPLIES SINCE 1987'.

I never got caught for that one, I think a good friend of mine did though.

I had him for a few periods when my regular Chemistry teacher was off, he seemed like a cracking teacher.
