Letting off stinkbombs in the hall was a favourite.I let some off one day and the principal called a meeting to try and find out who was responsible.Happy days.

Egging and flouring a birthday boy/girl....Loads of trouble in secondary school over stuff like that....all the people that would have home ec that day would be called in to be questioned!!!!

In the olden days a meeting with the head generally involved a cane (they were to be avoided at all costs)

Being learned proper.........

At a given signal we'd all remove our jumpers simultaneously..not against the rules but the teachers hated it because it implied advance planning and malice.

Other times we'd move our desks forward a couple of feet so that when the teacher came in he'd be squashed agianst the blackboard by the first row of desks.

Somebody took the screws out of the teachers stool once in 3rd year,when he leaned back the wooden part fell off and he clobbered the back of his skull off the rim of the blackboard..he then staggered out of the class in search of help while the rest of us feigned concern.

Freebasing cocaine in the jacks.

In secondary school we went one up on that.We had an hour study time every week where the class would be left alone in a room.There was a VCR and tv in the room and some bright spark brought in a hardcore porn video one day which the whole class watched.

I have a vague memory of primary school where we would throw plastic sticky worm/centipede things in the air and they would stick to the ceiling.
Some of them would stay stuck there for months before finally falling down at some random moment.

We were in a boarding school with notoriously narrow corridors in the dorms and we used to play 'rugby' which usually involved four people running at each other as fast as they could with no room to get out of the way........we didn't even have a ball..........

Wetting tissue and throwing it on the bathroom ceilings.. can't remember the name of them..!

Setting up a little shop in 1st class and later 3rd class. Got into trouble the second time with the principal (who remembered me doing it in 1st class, though I didn't know she knew). Had to give everyone the money back..!

The rivalry we had with the school across the road (this was in Northern Ireland, it was a protestant school) and the joint sports days we had to have!

[Asphyxia]

Ditching school and smoking joints in the bathroom and then going back to class stoned out of my head laughing frantically in the teachers face (thought I was so badass ) so embarrassing now.

Being in art class and and getting this really sticky tape and putting it on my friend Jack's eyebrows and then him ripping it off and being left with a smooth forehead I had to colour his eyebrows in with my eye pencil

Pushing my math teachers car across the school carpark and hiding it behind a tractor and then watching him look for it haha!

Too many things to write down but so many memories

[Slidey]

The school got white boards and temporary markers.

I happened to spot the exact same markers in a shop except the ones I saw were permanent markers.

I bought a few of them and swapped the refills around. Was great fun to see the teachers try to wipe the board after using the modded markers!

If you finished your work early you were to put your arms on the desk and lay your head down and stay quiet

Of course the same teacher would shove you and give out when you fell asleep

a pal of mine from secondary school get to gether for pints 2/3 times a year and invariably the conversation turns to the old days and we end up in tears of laughter - now the class wasnt agressive or smart per se - but we did give the teachers a bit of a hard time

one class had this timber box about 6' wide, 6' long and no more that a foot high, with a table and chair that the teacher would teach from - one of the lads didnt fancy class that days so climbed in till breaktime - in there for 2 classes with the teacher sitting above his head and at the mercy of the rest of us - respect to the guy though, i think they guys name was ken - all we did was kept saying - 'where's ken' 'i'm sure ken is around somewhere' we pissed ourselves

or the fights with the plastic bags of milk - perfect if you just hit the wall right and sprayed everyone - of course if it was you who got soaked by the end of the day your army surplus parka smelled to high heaven of sour milk

i remember lighting a pals arse with a lighter when he was reading, great fun til the next day when he returned the favour by sticking a lighter to my hair and setting my beavis and butthead mullet or whatever it was up in smoke

we used to have these 6/8 person long desks at the back of the class and everynow and then everyone 20+ would pile up from one side squashing some poor unfortunate up against the wall

dossing was out of the question for me as my old man worked directly across the road from the place

kids these days wouldnt survive that stuff
