Does this bring back memories?

I was sent this today by a friend and it made me laugh (quite alot). Does it bring back memories of skool or training?

Wow!! I'll have to show my dad, as he was on about the book ages ago, and we found it in the window of a charity shop eventually. Nice to see it's been updated to the 21st century

Still have my original copies of 'Down with Skool', 'In the jug agane', 'Whizz for Atoms' and the later 'Molesworth rites again'. They still make me laugh now.

Always thought St Custard's and Molesworth were much underrated - I still often refer to useless awards as "The Mrs Joyful Prize for Raffia-Work", but usually to very puzzled looks from listeners .....

..... could never understand why St Trinian's (also illustrated by Ronald Searle) became so much more popular....
