Hey Robusto, I went to a boarding school in (then) Rhodesia The housemaster was called (nickname) Moff S.A. slang for gay. He was called Major ..... He used to whip us so hard we bled. The head was a brigadier, they both insisted on being called by thier ranks. Most the teachers were queer or pissheads or just plain strange. Sometimes I go to bed and think about it and can't sleep, and this is after 37 years.
My cigar thing is quite recent but I've always loved the smell. I haven't smoked a fag since I was a teen!

Hi Satch.

I haven't read back but I was schooled by some very dodgy types. You know as well as I that being hidden away at boarding school can lead to all sorts. I'm a teacher myself now and never stay in a room with a single kid - male or female - without putting a chair in the door jamb and keeping a distance of about a million miles between myself and the kid.

I'm just home from managing my first Christmas concert ever for our school pupils. Traditional choir, gospel slot, "rock" groups... I'm not into God at all but I do like a good Noel. The kids - about 80 of them - were great. They might have been a disaster.

I've played a lot of gigs in my own right, but I've never conducted a school choir in public before. I feel like Andre fucking Previn.

Time for a slice of cheesecake and a blast on a fat and tasty cigar. I feel I have earned it today.

PS I think dabbling in a robust personal sex life has put those dodgy silhouettes in doorways in dormitories well out of my mind. You have to forget, and you have to get some in.

I lose no sleep over those times.
