Conor says...Jamie - nicely written, but I fear we have too many fart/school lunch gags as it is. What do you think?

Jamie says...Nice idea but egg sandwiches and Vimto aren't really that funny anyway. I can't comment yet on the volume of fart/school lunch gags yet as I'm currently working my way through every entry in the dictionary to find out exactly that sort of thing

Classroom comedy genius John Mills slayed the room (teacher included) with this tender morsel of verse dedicated to his best friend, Andrew:

I have a friend called Thacker,
Sometimes he is a spacker

We never heard the rest, but truly, we didn't need to.

Wrong, wrong, wrong! It was "skinch". End of.
