Even Peebles isn't so slow at getting news that it isn't aware of it's own school being on fire until several days later.

Craig Gordons Gloves Posted Thursday at 18:47 (edited) We spent years trying to burn that place down (mainly in McKenzie's chemistry class) so fair play to the wee bollocks that finally did it....

(that's tongue in cheek btw) Chemistry class you say, don't tell me yous mixed all different chemicals together hoping they would explode? Shocking behaviour, things like that were never tried when I was there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Funny how they same things were done in different generations, we did all that in the mid '70's, you in the 80's & my laddie in the 00's. 😂 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
