Well, I did both O levels and GCSEs... Great fun.. The GCSEs were easier.
Anyway, I went to Langley Park School for Boys (

Being honest, I think my school days were a mix of the worst days of my life (I got a lot of bullying about my voice), the best (I still have fond memories of bunking off games and going down the shops) and the scariest*.
*A few friends and I made the mistake of challenging the girls in the girls school next door to a game of netball. I was just making a comment about how easy the game is, and all of a sudden, a ball flew past my ear with an inch to spare.
