I've learned quite a bit about CH in my first month here, not all of it good unfortunately. The MasterPlan seems fairly unpopular for one.
If you were to get the job as Head what would you change?

cockroaches might just be a tad expensive in my regime. You get more for your money with wood-lice.

I'd probably also reduce the amount of choices of food available. Too namby-pamby these days.

But they don't have the scratchy legs, and cockroaches are much quicker to reproduce.J.R. wrote:cockroaches might just be a tad expensive in my regime. You get more for your money with wood-lice.

cockroaches? you mean real meat not "quorn" as we used to get?englishangel wrote:That's right, feed'em bread and cockroaches.J.R. wrote:I'd certainly get the standard of general appearance, and smartness of the uniform back to the 'good-old-days'.

and to quote Oliver Twist here:
'Meat, ma'am, meat,' replied Bumble, with stern emphasis. 'You've over-fed him, ma'am. You've raised a artificial soul and spirit in him, ma'am unbecoming a person of his condition......... If you had kept the boy on gruel, ma'am, this would never have happened.'

Quorn was first marketed in 1985 so I doubt that you had it at school.sport! wrote:cockroaches? you mean real meat not "quorn" as we used to get?englishangel wrote:That's right, feed'em bread and cockroaches.J.R. wrote:I'd certainly get the standard of general appearance, and smartness of the uniform back to the 'good-old-days'.

right you are Ms. Pedantic......I should have in fact used the term Kesp (Knitted Edible Spun Protein) which Loringa describes on the Favourite Meal thread..............englishangel wrote:Quorn was first marketed in 1985 so I doubt that you had it at school.sport! wrote:cockroaches? you mean real meat not "quorn" as we used to get?englishangel wrote: That's right, feed'em bread and cockroaches.

"During my time at CH, the food was uniformly awful. In the mid to late 70s, the catering staff introduced a meat substitute called 'kesp' to save money. Apparently it had been trialled in Wolverhampton so that was okay then! Initially kesp was used to bulk out the meat in pies and stews but eventually it became the sole source of protein and meals of such grotesque awfulness as 'Curried Kesp' became common-place."
....he's quite right, it was horrible.
