Ah, yes - the 'Old Ways'. I can only conjecture why Lizzie Cornish 1 did not qualify 'Old Ways' with 'good'.

When I was at secondary school - 1956 - 1961 - there was no chance of being eddimacated. The "teachers" were too busy battering ten bells of shite out of us with cane, pressure tubing, size 14 gym slipper and the tawse.

I had my first dose of the tawse at six years old.

Is the foregoing one of the 'Old Ways' Lizzie would like to see the return of ?
