Hurrah for wit!In one Science lesson, our teacher asked some of us to get into a line, so he could demonstrate starch going through the digestive system. He could have just eaten a potato and then cut himself open, but, whatever. anyway, I was one of the people up there. We were in a line, side by side. One person, who doesn't like me (so I shall call him Conko), was sandwiched between me and a person he likes (who I shall call Higgins). To put it in diagram form:
guy - guy - Higgins - Conko - Me - guy - guy
We were asked to link hands. Conko replied rather loudly (as is his style) "I'm not 'olding 'ands wif 'im!" referring to me. I muttered, just so only he could hear, "But you'd readily hold hands with Higgins, right?" The best he could retort was to splutter "WHAT?" to which I casually said "Nothing." I got away with it!
