What School did you go to?

[chantillylace]

Eaglesvale and Watershed seem to be dominant amongst our members. I'm curious to see which schools our members went to! I can only have 10 options so sorry if I've missed your school out - I used schools that have threads posted in the school catch-up section.

[Gustav]

[Chel]

[Bianca]

[Peas]

Vale

Grade one - form 5

[Blazzo]

Vale - grade 1 to Upper six

[Raevoyn]

So, what happens if you went to school in SA? You should put another option up there for other .....

[TiGeR]

[Bolty]

Founder Member - St Johns College - 1986 I think , a long time ago!!
Remember Cunliffe, the chain smoking, beer crate for a stool, always spelt Emmonioom, sodioom, etc with the accent on the ''oom'' part of the word. She had the most clapped out car of all the teachers. Couldnt go a double period without a smoke break

[TiGeR]

Ha ha ha ha! Bolty you beaut!...ja, Ma Cunliffe was a LEGEND! She gave me a hiding once for frying a frog's legs with the bunsen burner...we even had salt... ok, it was NaCl crystals but it would have done! DAMN she could hit for an old lady with emphysema!

I'm sure the greenboys who were taught by her remember "talk to me in terms of EN-ER-GY!" ... & she'd be wigglin' her ass & balancing on that beer crate!...geez, that old girl is the ONLY reason i got all 3 sciences (Phys, Chem, Bio) @ O level! In fact, i think doing my BSc @ uni i just visualised her standing over me & that got me through Biochem, Kines & Anatomy too!:smiley36:

[Bolty]

Burning froglegs with the bunsen burner thats a good one, excellent man.
Good on you with the Bsc mate, I'm glad she got through to at least one of us

[Bolty]

[Bianca]

LOL - I dated Robbie for about 5min a long time ago....

Imagine my surprise when I saw him on TV!!!

[TiGeR]

Ha ha ha! how many minutes?!:smiley36: That must be some kind of record...

[Bianca]

lol - okay - it was about 2 weeks - I was a bit of a serial dater back in the day... BUT I did really date someone for 10 min - in fact I double dated him and felt so bad that it only lasted 10 min! lol Ahhhh to be young.....

[TiGeR]

:smiley35: ...you see now...its girls like that that make me glad i was a late developer & only discovered girls at the end of school...otherwise i'd have gone MAD!:smiley29: ...:smiley36: ...yup, the things we did in our youth!

[Bianca]

My bad... ;)

[Exzim]

Thought the St Gorgeous (Georges) boys were hot too!


Thanks B, we were always told that

[Shayne]

By your male teachers most of the time.

[Exzim]

By your male teachers most of the time.

Na na na na na, it was always by the St Johns boys, I think they were jealous over heritage, history or something like that, and because the other "all girl" schools loved us.....

http://www.stjohns.co.zw/images/rammag.jpg VShttp://www.stgeorges.co.zw/Himages/inside/Inside1.jpg.......

[Chick]

Where are the Gweru schools listed?????

Gweru - a dorp in the middle of the country
Gweru - a city
Gweru - a place to drive through
Gweru - am I the only one who lived there

There is a Gweru(ist) going on - sob - please list Gweru Convent, Riverside Junior School, Thornhill High School and Chaplin (if you must) on the schools list options.

[kimberley]

i went to westridge and i think i am the only one here that did lol

[biffon]

the problem is that the poll only allows for 10 options.... perhaps a new one needs to be devised that lists them by region eg: Harare, Mash country districts, midlands, matabeleland, and that other place to the east :D

[taurus66]

Firstly Chaplin for my fisrt year , then Fort victoria high for the last three years .... I know no a big education at all by any standard but hey i have done ok for myself.

LOL Murray, but I bet the teachers were much tamer than in my time. Heck, I often wish I'd had the audacity/bravery to take photos of them! I find myself describing them to strangers now and it sounds like a horror story! In fact, don't even get me started...........

[Armstrong-Abbott]

And Shayne by the way, we were having a bit of banter about Arundel girls when u chipped in. Thought u were at least going to tell us a good story about climbing up the drain pipes into the dorms.....................:smiley20:

[kimberley]

I went to Westridge, form 1 -4

[Exzim]

St Johns Sports Day!

Hammy in the pink...

[Shayne]

Not only a great lover but also a great runner. Curly was undefeated for four years. :D

[Exzim]

Not only a great lover but also a great runner. Curly was undefeated for four years. :D

I am not going to ask why "Curly"!

and for 4 years..you poor buggers.

[boards]

Falcon College Boarding Institution

[Angelshark]

So Shayne went to St Janes. Exzim went to a real girls school which went co-ed a few years ago St Georgina. Patson went to the only men school and boards went to an institution, what a bunch we have on this site.

[Chick]

Baaaas, oh splinky splonky baas... would it be possible to extend the list now..... and add some schools from Byo and Gweru, you know - those cities other than Harare that exist.

"Any minute now Chick is gonna get a klap from Shayne"

[Angelshark]

So chick really which school did you go to in Bulawayo

[Chick]

I am a Gweru chick and went to Thornhill High School

[Angelshark]

OK I just thought that you went to Girls college or Townsend sorry

[barto11]

AS i'm guessing since you were so flattering of the school patson went too that your a gundi boy?? so er...how is a co-ed "the only mens school"....shame sal:smiley36:

[joemac]

There was only one real school. Plumtree.

[sally]

gundi was a great school!!

[barto11]

gundi was a great school!!

note the past tense:smiley36:

[Angelshark]

Plumtree boy myself, Couldnt handle the other girl schools.

[Angelshark]

Did one year at Eaglesvale but got let out for good behavior, Thought of going to lomascrungy but just contributed to whipping their asses at sports, more fun.

[boards]

Whipping arses certainly is your speciality!

[Angelshark]

Yeah not taking it, remember always give, never take.

[Zulu]

Plumtree! School! In the same breath, cough.

Oh well its good that you can remain so positive. :smiley36:

[Angelshark]

Yeah you read it right, beat the hell out of Falcon often in all sports, cant remember if Falcon beat Plumtree in the four years that I was there.

[boards]

Only cos Falcon didnt have a 5ths and 6ths team so you could get a game.... And we didnt play tiddly-winks and kiss catches like you did!

[Angelshark]

We had fifth and sixth teams cos we had such depth, even the newbies were trying to kick Falcons asses. How many Falcon boys played for the Springboks? Oh for that matter the SHARKS (the chief eaters)

[boards]

but who would want to play for such shit teams anyway? are they that desperate?

[Angelshark]

Wrong place to say dumbass things like that. By the way any Falcon girl do anything notable in Zim or the world for that matter.........................

[boards]

You forget the Zim cricket team was all falcon boys at one stage.... but this is getting petty - the bigger man is signing off.

[Angelshark]

chicken. and bigger man hahahaha.

[joemac]

Ummm, mr Duffin, the capitain(or was last I heard) is a plumtree boy.

[Angelshark]

Bit late to come to the party dude, I got slapped up side the head and forgot about cricket. thanx

[Angelshark]

Captain of Zim Rugby....... umm shot in the dark Victor Olonga

[boards]

Think we had lost every other player to a ZC political issue as well at that stage?? no disrespect to the lad as he is a fellow Karoi boy - but lets be honest guys at that stage Zim was scraping the barrel for anyone who could wield willow or toss a leather ball around?!

[Angelshark]

Thats why politics and sport dont mix. What is the situ now, gave up on Zim cricket a while back

[boards]

Havent watched a zim game since then...

[Angelshark]

I heard the new coach has his hands tied too. Spose the money is good tho

[boards]

Didnt Chingoka go to Plumtree?

[Angelshark]

No, him and his brother went to PE

[Springbok]

None of the above i went to Vainona High and then Hillcrest High in SA

[Angelshark]

And there you have it, ha

[boards]

Boards Its a beauty Bet you get all the chicks in that In fact the image in head right now - Boards cruising with one of his American chicks off to the pub. I love it You would have done well in Plumtree with one of those :smiley32::smiley32::smiley32::smiley36::smiley36: :smiley36:


ummmm - in Esigondini (im a Falcon Lad!)... mind you AS could have put it to good use in Plumtree or Willowvale and HH could have used to great affect ferrying his CBC mates around instead of picking up chicks!

[Mullah]

Boards My apologies I thought you were a Plumtree boy. OK So what is the difference between the two They are both in the shateen with no chance of finding any action. OOOOPS maybe with the teachers!!!!!

[boards]

Apologiese accepted! They used to ship bus loads of willing Chisi and GC Chicks out to us in the shuteen just to sate our appetite!! Mind you we usually did show PLumteree and CBC up in the chick department as well....

[Angelshark]

Yeah you are right. Falcon did show the Plumtree boys up by acting like chicks, did all your love hunting at Gifford and Milton did you?

[boards]

Yeah you are right. Falcon did show the Plumtree boys up by acting like chicks, did all your love hunting at Gifford and Milton did you?

you obviously didnt read my post about GC and Chisi shipping out bus loads of chicks for our satisfaction? I wont hold that against you cos Plumtree didnt teach you how to read very well!

AS did you keep your school skirt?

Go Matabeleland!

[Angelshark]

The only reason you got bus loads of grunts shipped out to you was the staff where tired of getting threats of violence. The girls were kept on one side of the fence and you guys on the other, spankin' your little monkeys. Plumtree boys on the other hand had manners and would never resort to violence. Just glad my father sent me there and not to Fucken.

[boards]

Just glad my father sent me there and not to Fucken.

Your parents were trying to get you as far away from home as possible!

You would know about standing by the border fence and spanking your monkies - those were the only females interested in going out to the shyte-hole albeit under duress...

[Steve]

I went to Grey street re-education college in Bulawayo. Does that count??? :whistling:

[lurchandpasta]

Apparently there is only space for 10 options, so the Harare crowd got all the allocated spaces... typical.

[Mullah]

Well I went to that fountain of Knowledge in Bulawayo Hamilton High School Being sistered with Montrose, we had access to the best chicks in Bulawayo. And I think Hamilton, known for some serious rugby players, swimmers, waterpolo and other sports, - David Smith - was the only school where the prefects got caned after a rugby tour. One of the prefects scaled some cricket balls in South Africa and then tried to sell them to the school. Plus, in Bulawayo, the Hamilton boys were not messed with due to the fact that you never knew what they might fight you with - broken bottles knives etc. As for Plumtree and Falcon, would someone please remind me where they are at??????
