I can’t remember all the reasons I got the belt, mainly because it was nearly every week at times LOL. There was this Techical teacher who sent me for a belt to another class. He then examined it, said it was longer than his, and proceeded to put chalk on the tail ends. It was then “hands out, doubled!” and he gave me a stroke. He then examined my hand and said something about not quite right, rechalked it moved away a little then thundered down another one. Examined my hand again, said nearly there, rechalked and gave me a third stroke. Again examined hand said “Spot on” then told me to take the belt back! Always did want to meet that man in later years..
