Ditto actually but caning was out by the time I hit grammer school though we had plenty of it in primary school. I'm just a young 'un though at age 30.
Being an Essex boy, as soon as caning was banned the chalk rubber became the weapon of choice.
Oh and just incase anyone is actually still reading this for the photographic reasons rather than the ridiculous tangent all threads take when Alex and I are involved.
- Beni has incredibly kindly lent me a lens
- I have a volunteer for the day who has about 3 times more kit than me and already has had photos published in magazines and is therefore incredibly likely to show up my exceptionally amateur snaps!
For any Colonials reading - think 'Jersey Shore' sorry Beckett.
Or smallest cheapest car you can buy with body kit worth 3x it's value, huge exhaust, lowered with massive alloys and a big blue light under it. Although saying that I think Chris's car comes closer to my description than mine...

Excuse me?? Alfa Romeo = Pure Class! You're the one with the Citroen C2, if ever there was a car screaming out for a bad Halfords body kit and a night spent spinning the tyres in a carpark.......
I've almost finished my bottle of Talisker. Just opened a new bottle of Aberlour, am making good headway into my Aberlour Aboundh (just try it once, it's incredible) and am giving my Laphroig a miss after drinking almost an entire bottle of it at a cousins wedding a month back (I wasn't shooting and was letting my hair down a bit) and spent the night at home puking my guts out. Spoke to my cousin, the brides dad yesterday. His comment on me drinking so much of his whisky was 'it was there for drinking, you were more than welcome, well done for outdrinking your brother for the first time!'. That's from a Glaswegian doctor...
My dream car is still the Brera (in 4 wheel drive and 3.0 engine, dream on Beni..) but I saw the Mito for the first time recently, what a georgous little car! Got to love Alfa...
The Brera is a sexy little car, but I think it's got a bit of a J-Lo butt, I prefer the spider which seems more 'in proportion' - however neither of them can even compare to the 8C, but I'm not going to get one of them by shooting weddings!
You're in good company with the Whiskey, seems like every British wedding photographer likes a bit of the golden stuff.
I'm only waiting on FLAT (as in apartment, not a chest that leaves you wondering what to do with your hands) and BLOODY and then I'll be truly satisfied
