Reminder

I just remembered the name of the book that I have been trying to think of for yonks, I used to have a copy which has vanished, and I want to buy it next chance I have:

"Down with Skool" by Geoffrey Willans and Ronald Searle

I have wish listed it on Amazon which should help me remember as well.

Oooh, I think I've got that somewhere! I used to have a compendium of all three, Down With Skool, Back In The Jug Agane and...dammit, I can never remember what the other one was called.

Good old Molesworth :o)

Yay. I used to love that book (probably still do) and I have no idea what has happened to my copy of it, but I've been trying to remember the name of it for ages after I had a dream involving the "Know the enemy (or masters at a glance" pages. Now I've remembered I'm not losing the name again until I can get my grubby mitts on a copy. :)

It seems there were 4 books:
Down With Skool!
How To Be Topp
Back in the Jug Agane
Wizz For Atomms
I have found a compendium of all 4 which I might buy instead of them seperately: Compleet-Molesworth (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Compleet-Molesworth-Geoffrey-Willans/dp/1851450017)
