It's a UK thing to wear indoor shoes outside. When I've been to colder countries and hotter countries you tend to take your outdoor shoes off in places where you are staying for a few hours including other people's homes."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

A office in Norway that I used to work used yoga balls instead of chairs. That was fun. You stopped concentrating on sitting up straight and you were a goner."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

Can anyone else remember that or was it just some weird social experiment?
I can't remember for how long and up until what age but after lunch we would get back to the classroom and camp beds were put up.
Don't remember ever getting any sleep. Probably just as well with all the wandering hands around in those days.Comment

In my case I did half days for one and a half terms then was made to do a full day in the summer term when I was moved into a class of slightly older kids. I was upset to lose my teacher and didn't like any of the other teachers I had until I was in junior school. Talking to some of my friends' who were in her class and I was moved out to to make room for them as well they didn't like any of the other teachers apart from her either."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment
