Hi Triangle - I've just noticed an earlier post by you in which you mention Dr Badcock who liked to use the cane. I can confirm that! He left in 66 to become Head Master of a private school in North London. I can't remember it's name but he and a group of boys frrom there joined us on the Russia trip in 67. In Leningrad I arrived back in my room about 5 minutes late one night and he was patrolling the corridor. He put me over his knee and gave me 6 almighty wacks with his sandle - It was absolutely humiliating and disfraceful - not to mention painful. The other lads in the room said I should have complained but I was to scared. Thinking about it years later I'm sure he must have been was a bit dodgy.
