I hadn’t even seen a belt in two years and hadn’t witnessed a strapping in three. The entire class was stunned into silence. Would he really belt a sixth-year student? Could he? Would it ‘work’ (for some reason, comical now, we all had a suspicion that the reason they stopped belting you after about 15 was because ‘it didn’t really hurt’ after that age; wrong!) ?
