I remember standing outside the head office listening to the boys punishment in front of me.My knees were knocking and I was shivering
All of a sudden the door opened a boy came out and I heard the head say NEXT
I went in, he said don’t waste time bend over.The cane whistled thru the air and I felt this sweet burning feeling of relief and a great feeling of happiness.I am now 77 and not a day goes by when I do not think and need a repetition
