My Headmaster told my Father it would be a waste of good foolscap to take my Common Entrance exam. Went to a private kindergarten - then boarding at a Prep school at eight. Then a very minor Public school - boarding - came out at seventeen without a single qualification. It's been a bit of a nuisance every since.

I left school with no qualifications, luckily i knew i was not thick like they said, so still found a way to go to uni and when I did my diploma, degrees and then masters there was a lit more understanding, plus computers and spell check (though I find this limiting as I don't often know the correct one).

But seriously if he was a deaf, dumb and blind kid you'd have to get someone to get him there. Someone to sign what the fcuk was going on and someone to direct him in the right direction. Huh?

Hi Van,
Psalms mentioned a "Pin Ball Wizard."
I just quoted lyrics from the Who's Pinball Wizard.

Yeah, you and your middle-aged, middle class, white male cultural references. How is Van supposed know about The Who?
That's typical excluding behaviour, you colonialist bastard. Racist, ageist and thickist.
