Given the current penchant for suing for past trauma whether real or imagined, I wonder if we could get payment for having to endure "Nitty Norah the Bug Explorer", or what about the indignity of having to walk round school with that purple dye stuff they used to put on. I also remember that kids with a 'lazy eye' had to wear clinic glasses with sticking plaster over one lens. Of course these kids were often the recipients of cruel taunts which must surely have affected them for years. I also remember one time we had to queue up to have our backsides swabbed, I think it might have been an outbreak of dysentry. Or standing in line for injections and seeing others slide down the wall in a fainting fit as they were told the needle was 'enormous'. Surely the education board must be made to pay, I'm sure there must be something in it for all of us 50 plus damaged souls?
