I Got Caned At School

I got the cane for fighting a few times. Teachers didn't care who started it, all parties involved would be punished. If we were lucky, we might just be slippered in the playground. If not, it was off to the head. for a caning.

Well yes, I'm sure we would have been very different if there had been lots of girls, even genteel ones, in the school!

Another point is that most teachers were quite reluctant to impose formal punishments. There were a couple of occasions when I might easily have been sent for a caning, but the teacher concerned chose to turn a blind eye.
