Hee hee, it had only just been written when we were at school.

I do find it interesting about how what was once contemporary and cutting edge at the time, suddenly becomes a 'classic'. Like people have said Shakespeare if taught properly should explain that it was written with a raucous live audience in mind, and all the filthy jokes should be seen in context and explained.
