Half Penny Jon Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 Have a great Easter everyone and like William, i wont have access to a computer over the weekend. Talk to you all on monday! P.S: I totally agree that comprehensive schools are rough places these days, however, I do go to one and the quality of teaching is exceptional! Also, most students achieve and exceed their potential for example, I got 3 A*'s for my science exam. It just shows that not everyone who go to comprehensives are bad, however, I can see your point Emperor Oli! Quote
Chris Perkins Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 Thanks Penny Master, see you monday.Don't take that Oli too seriously, he's just a snob Quote
Master Jmd Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 shouldnt this be posted in the nothing-to-do-with-coins section?anyway, dont count your chickens before your eggs, and have a great easter Quote
Emperor Oli Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 Don't take that Oli too seriously, he's just a snob FYI I have noble German blood in my veins! My great grandparents were the Count and Countess of a place near Lauenberg which is near Kiel in the north Quote
Chris Perkins Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 I have a coin from Lauenburg.I saw a real German price on TV recently, he worked on the Dodgems at a fairground. Quote

It just shows that not everyone who go to comprehensives are bad, however, I can see your point Emperor Oli! I went to a comp, and actually if i'm not wrong the nearest grammar school was a hell of alot rougher, indeed they were taking the students that got expelled from our comp school! (we didn't take any of theirs though! and a good proprortion of their female students either left pregnant or had kids shortly after... can't think of one from our year at my school though... that i know of)Also I only got B's on my science GCSEs, and chemistry was my fave subject. It's the biology that brought it down you know, either that or evil physics! (my maths is not good to say the least).Although i got a B on that too at GCSE I'm not even telling you what i got my one and only A in. Quote
Emperor Oli Posted April 8, 2004 Posted April 8, 2004 I saw a real German price on TV recently, he worked on the Dodgems at a fairground.I guess you mean Prince but hey. The would-be Emperor of Austria-Hungary is also that way now - not grand at all. However, my great grandparents did own a large estate up there so it ain't all bad! Quote
Chris Perkins Posted April 9, 2004 Posted April 9, 2004 Yes, I meant prince. DID own a large estate. You don't impress me in the slightest unless it's still in the family, and even if it was you'd still be an ordinary school boy Oli, with ideas above his station! Someone once traced my family tree back to a Frenchman (sorry) who came over with William of Normandy in 1066. Quote
