Grief! Remember when you had done three good pieces of work i.e. 3 A's on a trot, or similar, and you were sent down to Mabel's office. You had to knock on the door and await her "come in" - I nearly wet myself on more than one occasion waiting to hear that voice boom through the door! You then went in, she studied your work, and then slapped the words "commendation" in big red lettering (with a rubber stamp) on your work! Wow! The thrill! The delight of getting one of those in your book! (sad, innit

really)
