there was a school's edition which was lame, and all my team mates were idiots so we did really badly. Schools (i.e. team) version was 3 teams of 5.

The girl on the left in that photo was famously loopy, although I'm not sure how much the reputation was deserved. She was allegedly caught fingering herself in French (for real) and had a coffin in her bedroom.
The girl on the right was was proud that her dad was a Tory counciller.

Most of our Pub Quiz mafia went on 15 to 1 at some point. The main reason I could never be arsed was cos there was no money involved.

well, as i said on that other thread, i was in a team that won a general-knowledge competition two years running, but we were an independent prep school so YAH BOOH SUCKS

haw! no idea. I think he left at 16. He was very short and was bullied terribly. I had no classes with him until GCSE art. I still remember the sound of a lump of modelling clay the size of a softball hitting him in the head. Those lessons were out of control.
Our school was pretty much 1/3 non-white British until 16+, and you can see what happened there from the year group photo.

I got a U in our GCSE art mock exam. Good times.

caek: I was at state primary until the end of year 5, at which point my parents thought they'd give me a crack "at the highest academic level", and sent me to westminster under school for three years, where, i am happy to inform, i still finished top of the exams, as well as the punishment lists. god i was a gormless twat then (think i'm bad now? then HA)
also my bro, who attends Westminster as well (as a fees-paid academic scholar, but still), got a D at GCSE art proper :p

in fact we were both given the ultimatum: "get a scholarship or we can't afford for you to go". both of us succeeded, and although the school was good for me in that i'd have been SLAUGHTERED at most other places (for being such an extrovert outsider goon), i can't help wondering whether my actual life wouldn't have been improved had i failed to get the grades.

Absolutely not.

ha, folks like you would have driven me to depression :D
westminster wasn't that bad tbh. towards the end i began to fit in and what was previously fond mockery became genuine fondness. it helped that i kinda blanked out how socially-connected and wealthy the vast majority of pupils were. definitely suited me more than my brother.

Mookie, the pic of you looking pug-nosed and sulky in jr high is endlessly amusing.

My even-younger brother is at a comprehensive and although he's an immature pillock his street sass puts mine to shame. Apparently when someone tried to mug him of his phone he merely asked if that guy was a dealer and could he have HIS phone number. This confused the would-be robber enough to prevent the attack (he even gave my brother his number!). Kids eh?

aw thanks. actually i don't think i'd reached jr. high yet, on reflection--i don't look hideous enough

I'm relatively certain we happened to all dress like that and basically were all "LET'S STRIKE A POSE!" when Sara asked us for a picture.
― HI DERE, Monday, 7 January 2008 23:16 (sixteen years ago) link
Trust me, I did NOT ask them to dress up like that; I found them that way. And believe me, there were stranger fashion statements made. (GOD if I had that picture of John in the weirdest hat ever, I would post it in a second.)
