Mark Sutcliffe, now thats a name I haven't heard for years. We started at CH in the 3rd form together. He was great at getting in trouble. Didn't he get expelled in the end?
I had phalik Matthews too, oh those cigarettes and the bunsen burner. I will never forget the day he nearly blew the lab up by sticking the wrong chemical into the flame.

The was a teacher who had the lab in the science block accessed via the outer stairs next to the old school library and the science quad. I was in that lab when the teacher dropped a bottle of mercury. Three of us came down sick within 24 hours.
There was loads of speculation we would die as a result of the mercury poisoning. It was two days before my second leave day. I was then discovered on leave day that we all had tonsilitis.

I had a (Brit) friend in the USwho was diagnosed with MS although she fell outside the usual demographic. She bought a book on it and it gave mercury poisoning as an alternative diagnosis, so she had her fillings replaced and recoverd completely.

they say there is a huge number due to the warm
temperature and the rain we've had recently
In London we have more big fat spiders than I have
ever seen before, probably due to the climate as well
