Ah, netball, one of my fondest school time memories, like yourself sport didn't interest me except swimming, so I'd do anything to get out of football, sorry sir forgot my kit, sorry sir can't play today my sister is on her period, any excuse not to play.
Now the gym teacher and music teacher mentioned earlier hatched a plan, I and another lad turned up yet again without football kit, he marched us over to the netball court where the music teacher (part time gym mistress) was teaching the girls.
We two were told if you won't play football you'll do netball with the girls, they thought this would be humiliating to us, oh how wrong they were, two lads going through puberty being attacked by girls! We were in heaven, the following week the teachers abandoned that idea when nine more lads had erm' forgotten their football gear after we had told them the joy we had been put through.
