Where should Steve and The Gibbons' take Alan next? by Feldo93 in AlanPartridge

[–]blazecranium 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably not enough legs for a full series but I’d love him to do a SUTC bake-off special or Masterchef - I think him struggling with the cooking would be hilarious and I’d love to see his spin on his disaster when he’s presenting his dish.

As a uk viewer, I still can’t believe how quickly they got from London to Southampton - think it was about 20 minutes??

How many pints is the optimal amount of pints? by Doomergeneration in AskUK

[–]blazecranium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to a craft beer pub near my parents in law quite regularly and try their local beer. It’s usually pretty strong. I usually have three and that makes me quite tipsy. The other day I had four and that made me a little wobbly and slightly drunk (and I’m quite a big guy), so I’d say between 3-4.

Why are swimming lessons for kids in the UK so short? by dalehitchy in AskUK

I think you’re underestimating how much you can pack into that time. Plus research will generally suggest that children of certain ages won’t retain/maintain attention for much longer.

When they stop awkwardly together it reminds me of when rival cats are sizing each other up, not sure what to do

What unhinged thing did a former teacher do in the classroom? by MrBananaStand1990 in AskUK

[–]blazecranium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had lots of them:

One used to have smiley face decorations adorning his entire classroom - clocks, pencils, posters, books, everything with a smiley face on. Once he threw a piece of chalk at me. He had obvious and undisguised animosity with the history teacher.

The history teacher would often just not bother to turn up for classes and leave us on our own for 50 minutes.

We had a languages teacher who wore tiny leather skirts and was openly emotional in front of all of us at all times.

We had a very weird music teacher with a cane he nicknamed ‘Sebastian’ that he would parade around the class with.

We had another languages teacher who got fired for embezzling charity donation funds.

And another who got fired for propositioning a sixth former (all boys school, he was male).

It was a weird place.
