Ex-Tabula Rasa

I shall try to define myself in a sentence with a pithy comment at the end:
I'm just an English bloke who lives in Canada after marrying a Canadian lady he met while living in Japan. Yeah, that old cliché.

Shameless Self-Promotion:
My utterly hilarious blog is here
And another one is here

Wow! I'm on Twitter now!
Averaging three stars a tweet since the death of Favrd!

I would hate it if my wife had been my teacher in school

On Friday Mrs Fuiru held back one of her classes at the end of school because a load of the students had been talking and disrupting the lesson. She told them that they just needed to stay in the room, in absolute silence, for three minutes.

Three minutes of silence. No talking. No chairs squeaking. No noises of any kind.

Including no laughing.

She set the timer. Three minutes. If she heard a noise, she would reset it, and the three minutes would have to start again. Silence. Three minutes. No more. No less.

The class sat in silence. They were ready. They would not talk. They would not shuffle. They would not giggle or snicker or laugh.

Then Mrs Fuiru started dancing.

They were in the room for more than 30 minutes.
