He took his first six, but then just as he was about to leave the room he changed his mind and asked the headmaster if he could please have the remaining six there and then, a request which was granted. He said that he could not really explain why he had asked for that, he didnt think it was just to get it over with and the thought had crossed his mind that if had he not turned up in a weeks time there was little the school could have done about it.
I have since read about this in fictional accounts on the internet. I was wondering however if anyone else remembers anything like this happening. I don’t think it ever did at my school. Is this just somebody’s fantasy, or was it a punishment policy that was ever used?
