Fifty Years Ago: Tuesday, 8th June 1976
(Sedbergh School, age 14)
Wake up early. Very bright in the morning. Got up early to write out French Grammar notes on passé imperfait.
German: test back, good.
French: average test, everyone else high marks
Geography: we do oil and have a filmstrip.
Break: still no letters! Meat off, so chuck it. Coffee and rock buns.
Maths: 8/20, not good! For one mistake. For not doing my calculations on the ‘neat sheet’.
Physics: reading. Talk to AGM.
Draw.
Lunch.
Cricket: get off it, as I can send AH along as my substitute.
Swim: do wind breaths – a front crawl breathing drill where swimmers “snap” the breath quickly like catching wind, then relays.
Grubber: tuck.
Life-saving 200m.
Projects: design record rack.
