Heard on the bus:
“I was sneaking out of school and the deputy head caught me and took me straight to the head.”
“Wow. What happened? Was she very scary?”
“She asked me why I was leaving school early. I told her that my pet bird was sick.”
“What did she say? Did she believe you?”
“She told me to go home and look after it.”
Jeers and laughter all round.
Heard on the bus:
“My mum wanted me to do another eleven plus paper. I argued. She told me to wait for my dad.”
“Wow. What happened? Was he very scary?”
“He asked me why I didn’t want to do yet an eleven plus paper. I told him that I was bored. The papers were too easy and I was getting around 90% every time.”
“What did he say? Did he believe you?”
“He told me to stop winging it and get on with the work.”
Jeers and laughter all round.
Heard in the car:
“My daughter told me that she now wants to do the eleven plus. I told her that it was a bit too late.”
“Wow. There are just three months to go. What did you do?”
“I took her to a book shop and showed her all the eleven plus papers.”
“What did she say? Did she believe you that it may be a bit too late?”
“I told her to try some papers and then make up her mind.”
Cheers and congratulations all round.
