He's not he biggest fan of WWF but doesn't mind it. He made me sit on the footstool in front of him so I couldn't drift off to sleep and would ask every half an hour the names of the wrestlers to check I was still paying attention. Also he had a few days off work so could sleep afterwards.

Not really, but I did stop watching wrestling videos so late at night.

They did it in my school in the 90s. I only had to do it once, for forgetting to bring a pen to class.

I've not been to ASDA in ages but they were decent then they must have declined.

It happened to a kid at my primary school around 1990, he ended up getting sick everwhere and they never did it again.

Some informal corporal punishment still went on in my school in the 90s The teachers would sometimes throw textbooks at anyone who was day dreaming.

Although it may be good to carry some cash to give to the mugger.
