I never thought of looking on wikipedia. We aren't allowed to use it as a source at uni, so I never bother with it.
As for Bentley Shakermaker, do you honestly think I ever paid attention?
That's why I was never great at geography. I was copying off you!

Contrary to popular belief, Google is the creation of mortals and thus does not hold all the answers.
Fred Bentley was our somewhat legendary Geography teacher at Mount Carmel. Taught P.E. back in the day and then moved on to Geography when he himself became fossilised.

I think it was possibly my worst subject at school. And that time he put a picture of an eye on a graph and said it represented my 'gorgeous eyes'... how embarrassing. He seemed to think all the lads should fancy me lol

He was a fabulous teacher, but retired now. I think its sad how you lose touch with teachers. I would love to see him again and let him know how I was doing, he always thought very highly of me.
In fact, once he embarrassed me in front of the whole class for my poor attendance by reading out my CAT score and saying how it was the best in my year and I should be getting A's. Shame I never listened.
Also remember that. He did the same with me when he covered a history lesson, the bugger.
Ha! I actually remember that. It wasn't all so bad afterall
I honestly think the times he embarrassed me are the only things I remember from geography.
The worst thing is that I had the same as Dale and he actually got the A's and I didn't
dales doing a maths degree though, what do you even DO with a maths degree?!
