If you’re going to throw a paper aeroplane at the French teacher, you might as well make a trip to the art room before the lesson and do it properly.

The school’s entire collection of colour plates from old National Geographic magazines was decimated in a single term when we discovered they made superb paper aeroplanes, especially when they have cocktail sticks wedged into the nose.

Our school had pull-back partition walls separating some rooms. When we were upstairs in French, we used to throw planes down at a class diagonally below us. Their teacher usually went bananas at us but one day as a plane was slowly wafting down towards her, she looked up sharply and her left breast fell out of her dress. She didn’t notice. Her entire class did. She ended up having a nervous breakdown.

Even better, if you blue tack one of those plastic craft knives into the fold down the centre of the aeroplane, so that the blade protrudes from the front of the aircraft, it becomes a highly accurate and lethal weapon of terror that will easily lodge into walls, blackboards, flesh etc.
Please don’t try this at home, school or anywhere else.

Mr Anstey - mild-mannered R.E. teacher faced an up-hill struggle every week. Nobody really cared about “what kind of lentils Muslins had for breakfast”. What they were interested in was having the man endure squadrons of paper planes pelting his back, while he chalked up The Ten Commandments.
Mr Anstey: “Right. Pieces of paper are now 10p each!”
Class clown, after throwing a £1 coin at teacher and strolling up to grab a pile of paper: “OK. I’ll take ten.”
You see, on God & stuff he was mustard. Forecasting current trends in market forces, though - rubbish.
