Back to school

Me. With my reputation. Running an event in a former school?

Had the organisers of a session I ran at work today known of my extra-curricula interests, I doubt they would have booked the team into a recently-converted school building that now operates as a small conference centre.

Did I really tell one of the female delegates that, “If you don’t behave I’ll send you to the headmaster’s study”?

Did I honestly question another: “I hope I didn’t see you smoking in the playground during break?”

Lest anyone accuse me of gender bias in the workplace. I did scold one of the male participants for coming back into the building through the staff entrance, not via the “Boys” door.

They hire the place out for private functions, apparently. I wonder if they kept the old furniture? Or the canes? Haron called into the venue at the end of the day, “to help me pack up”: sadly, there were too many staff around for me to thrash her.
