It was hot and D,(a fifth former in the bottom stream who was known to think himself ‘hard’) presumably seeing me in summer sweatshirt and jeans was busily undressing himself, sans blazer, shirt out, tie off…… .then he moved to sit on the window ledge….’just getting some air’ he commented. She retorted for him to sit down and get dressed…and reeling off all his errors that day ( no pen, paper, etc. etc. general nuisance, sass, ) she continued with words to the effect that ‘if dumb were dirt….you’d spread an acre…’ I think the point was lost on him as with the next comment about back in the States he would already be getting swats.
