We later found out that her maiden name was "Ingle". Which made her Wingle! My nephew started there in September and proudly said "Wingle, you know my dad and uncle - you them Geography!!!) He received ten days detention and his parents received a stern letter.

I pissed myself laughing. And the rumours that me bruv shagged her on the Geography field trip to Bodmin are not founded.

We did a geography field trip to Bodmin - but I was at University then  - hence I don't remember very much about it  lol:

Are all field trips based in either Bodmin or in the Peak District????

Those that aren't to Shap are.







Shap is North of Kendal for those that haven't been there.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

If your geography teacher/tutor is a geology nut then Shap is the place they always head for. Pink Granite!

Our geography teacher at school (all girls) was a perv - he always used to straighten our collars after P.E and put the fingers inside the collar  scared2:  His wife had to come on the field trip with him as he couldn't be trusted down the Blue John mines.

Our geography teacher at Uni was a pisshead and so we stayed in a Inn on Dartmoor with an open bar and never made many trips out before midday and got back before tea. Priorities and all   lol:

Why on earth would anyone want to go to bodmin? Even by Cornish standards there are some odd buggers living there?  eeek:
