I can't recall what we called girls at primary school (I went to a prep, and my recollections are limited somewhat to the weird curriculum, coupled with enforced eating of pickled beetroot, although I was deeply in love with a girl named Rosemary Cuss ❤️).  Secondary was a strict single sex boys RC school in Kensington, with many beatings to try and reduce individuality.

Alas, some of our priest teachers had a bit of a different concept of what the term "rod" meant in the expression "spare the rod, spoil the child" 😳

Hence our little joke of ..

"Bend over, boy"

" No sir.  I'd rather have the cane."

Here's a pleasant little story of a teacher who worked at both my prep and secondary school...

Fascinating fella in some respects.  He built a large organ (no pun intended ) in our upper school hall.  

Not sure that he interpreted the school motto Amare et Servire in the way it was originally intended.  🤣🤣🤣

I only went to a mixed school up to age 11 but I think once past infants all boys were addressed by surname while the girls were addressed by forename. I might be wrong though as I recall both names for quite a few boys and girls and none where I knew only one or the other from then.

😬😬😬

Anyway, moving on and kinda vaguely related to the thread title... have any of you heard about the benefits of spinning?  Not riding a gym bike, but more of a whirling dervish thing.

I recall reading about it years ago, and that Bruce Forsyth was a strong advocate of it.
