PE LessonsFor some they may have been the highlight of the school week, but all we remember is a never-ending series of punishments involving inappropriate nudity and climbing up ropes until you wet yourself.
Tell us about your PE lessons and the psychotics who taught them.

Grin and bare itWas Hutcheson's Grammar School in Glasgow the last to insist that girls wear gym tunics as school uniform? Well into the eighties they lasted there, to be worn on the two days a week when the girls had PE. Hideous.
And yet. And yet.
It became a custom amongst the young ladies, having acquired one of these monstrosities on joining the school at twelve, to wear the same one until they left. At eighteen.
The results had to be seen to be believed - as had the rows of young gentlemen, bent double with school bags held in front of them just below waist level. The apotheosis came with the head of school, a six foot amazon, whose gym slip was so short that her rather brief knickers showed without her having to bend over. Ah, happy, happy memories.

Sorry, any cameras would have fallen out of our nerveless, sweaty and shaking hands. On the bright side, someone has posted some hockey team photographs from those years to Friends Reunited. Aah.
