Several of us gave it a try, but as we could not afford a rehearsal studio, we practised in the school’s acoustically soundproofed music area. On the weeks when Miss F took Saturday detention,( which was reasonably frequently; the rotas reflected who used the method of punishment, and she sprinkled them like confetti.)… she would encourage us to rehearse at the same time, as she would open up and lock down the facility which was in the so-called new school buildings, normally not open at the weekend even to boarders. .. the quid pro quo for this was that she expected us to keep her supplied with coffee and biscuits whilst she took the three-hour detention. This arrangement suited me because as she lived only yards from my house, so, I got a lift in and out to boot.
