You should, man. Absolute cruelty, that stuff was. We had it at Moldgreen Primary in 1974-76, Wooldale Juniors 1977-80 and I'm fairly sure we had it at Holmfirth High in the 80's and possibly Greenhead College too. Not to mention just about every pub toilet had it. Certainly The Nook did. I went to Moldgreen in the late 40s/early 50s." 2 of the teachers were right sadists,Raddish Radcliffe used to through his blackboard rubber {Wood base} at anybody not paying attention,and a bloke called Charlie Hawley once chucked a woodwork chisel at someone,it stuck in the back wall.Gordon Kaye {allo allo} was a pupil, he used to get beaten up every day. I started at Moldgreen infants in 1959, it wasn't any better then. |

Poor old Gordon. R.I.P. The playground could be the cruelest of places. |

I started at Moldgreen infants in 1959, it wasn't any better then. When I was there, there were more Asian kids than non-Asian kids. We had one Pakistani kid who'd just run around kicking everybody. Lads, lasses, didn't matter which. Monkey boots were his modus operandi. Lo and behold he tried it on with me one day, stung a bit, got home, my dad said 'kick him back'. I said 'what in these pumps?'. Next day he took me to the indoor market and I was the proud owner of a pair of Monkey boots. Yes, I did get him back. Not long after, I got my first kiss from a girl too. All I really remember about that school was those little bottles of milk - third of a pint - in a mini milk bottle, with a straw - that Thatcher took off us. |

I don't recall many Asian's while I was there.
There were a number of kids I recall from my time in the Juniors from Termbridge before it was pulled down.

Looking back, I wonder how many were Bangladeshi's. Following the founding of Bangladesh in 1971, a large immigration to Britain took place. I was there '74-'76. I loved the smells and colours of growing up in Dalton in the mid/early 70s. We moved to NewMill in '76 to be nearer my dad's work and there was none of that. Massive culture change. |

Do you remember a Brian Hannam, by any chance? |

Can't wait for Jeff Steling to say, "Straight to the tough shit stadium...". You beat me to it! "We're going to the toughsheet stadium where Huddersfield are leading against Bolton and that's just tough sheet for them!!" Lol |

Toughsheet?  I had no idea that Izal had rebranded... There's an entire generation of folk who have no idea what it's like to wipe your arse with tracing paper. My auntie used to buy it in the very early 80s and I remember it being in the odd public toilets here and there. I vaguely remember it making my arse slightly sore and taking several extra wipes. Although that could of just been me since I had only just learnt how to wipe my arse. Fuck knows who came up with that idea. A pumice stone would have been more effective and probably less painful!! |

More concerned by the hygeine, tbh. Or lack of it.
You'd literally get bored of just smearing and streaking shit everywhere and not getting anywhere nearer cleaning it.

Fast forward half a century and I'm a firm believer in biodegradable baby wipes.
Just incorporate one or two to supplement your normal Andrex in your wiping routine.

For those with more money - Is there not a device called a Bee-Day that scooshes water up one’s arse to do the job instead... For the Ladies only they could’ve called it a Pee-Day ! Not that I’ve ever seen one ever in The West Island or anywhere else, but I think you’d still need some normal bog roll along with it for drying and not enduring wet boxers or scanties or anything else ! 😉 |

Bloody Hell ! - I didn’t know that was how they spelt it Keith... I’d have read Bidet as (Bye Debt) as in cheerio to a loan ! Strikes 38 years ago in school and better things to do like pool 🎱 practice in The Bruce Hotel and Luchie’s Bar at Bowmore Hotel and line patrol with Hydro Electric engineers instead didn’t do much for old lads like Westie ! |

Hell no ! - And I don’t think that I ever will... I’ve just been in there doing the business 20 minutes ago and it’s probably still an exclusion zone after tonight’s chicken madras and cheesy chips ! I had to get on to ma ex girlfriend for using too much bog roll to “prevent skid marks” and also so no one would “hear her plopping” as the loo was at the top of the stairs in close proximity to the three bedrooms... but this piece of nonsense seen the bog choked a few times and guess who got the job of unblocking it !!! ☹️ And she was only a slim wee chick as well ! Tough sheet indeed - and it just goes to show that it’s not just the lads that have crazy caper in the crapper !!! |

Over here in Japan the 'washlet' toilet is standard. They feature adjustable temperature, adjustable power jet/spray for the arsehole and the same for the ladies' front-bottom area. Many also have a built-in deodorizer to neutralize the smells and running water or birdsong noises to mask embarrassing noises. Strangely, in a lot of public places such as shopping malls and stations, alongside these technological marvels there also exists a single stall which is just basically a hole in the floor. This one incidentally is always the only unoccupied trap when you're absolutely busting for a shite.

No. Funny enough I could remember the teachers but none of the kids apart from Gordon,and a lad called Mickey Parkin,we took papers from Rawthorpe newsagents round the Holays {where I lived} estate,his parents emigrated to Australia and I further learned he got killed in a road accident shortly after...Providence eh! |

Even in the schools run by the MOD in Germany the fuckers managed to do the same, every bloody time. I mean I know it's warm when it comes naturally but it's not supposed to be warm in a bloody carton!!! |

Fast forward half a century and I'm a firm believer in biodegradable baby wipes. Just incorporate one or two to supplement your normal Andrex in your wiping routine. There's a whole dialogue scene in Deadpool 2 you'd be interested in. Conversation between Matt Damon's*** and Alan Tudyk's hillbilly characters on the virtues of wet wipes. Uses the analogy of "if someone takes a dump in your beard you're not just going to use dry paper to clean" Paraphrasing, but essentially saying you need more than dry paper to clean shit  *** Damon is virtually unrecognisable and most people don't know he's even in the movie. |
