We were in the first year Now called Year Seven of school and again we were age about twelve, A new PE teacher had just started and I think two boys did see how far they could go. The teacher said all the set (fifteen boys) would get three of the slipper each, we did say it was not fair? But we all went into the gym, took one of out slippers off and lined up, in turn we went up handed him the slipper and was told to touch your toes for what was to us three stingers that hurt that much we all cried.
