Who remembers wearing short trousers at senior school

I remember it very well. I went to a Catholic boy's high school. The uniform was very strict and the same rules applied for all boys regardless of their seniority. Summer uniform dictated shorts and long socks and the winter uniform required long trousers. There was very little tolerance for not wearing correct uniform. The shorts were typical for the time (mid 60s to early 70s) and came down to about mid thigh. I remember I would plead with my mother to buy new shorts as growth had the getting shorter and shorter very quickly!
