The lecture  

Posted by Feral Beast in

Hello.mrgreen

I went to a lecture last Tuesday and they spoke about all the teachers that went to the first world and that they were in the front line much longer than most people and that there were only two female school staff who enlisted.eek

The lady that did the lecture was the only person in the world to do the research that she did.surprised

She told us a lot of stories about teachers and other school staff that went to the front line, and after the lecture this other woman talked about a lot of men that didn't want to shoot any one, so they became stretcher bearers and she talked about her uncle that was one of them, the lecturer said she knew about the other lady's uncle's story.surprised

I enjoyed it and it was fun siting there and hearing all of those stores.mrgreen

Sounds intriguing. I'd have been one of the stretcher bearers myself...or, more likely, on one of the stretchers because I kept sticking my head over the trench to see if it had stopped raining.

LOL.I hope you had a water tight head and didn't teach your class how to make your water tight head non-water tight.

Mr. Beast,

My head's not only water-tight, but also air-tight...otherwise all the hot air would escape.

Well, like I always say, you need to have as much hot air in your head.
