To add incentive to answer her questions teacher said

The first pupil to answer the next question correctly can have a toffee.

Just as she finished someone burst a bag of liquorice balls and they went all over the floor.

The teacher said who,s got black balls ?

Little Johnny shouted out "Al Johnson miss, gimme mi toffee."

( maybe ) it did for me.

I can see where you are coming from with this one, but surely you should try harder.

(I tried to make it read like a school report)

It depends on your sense of humour suengha.

In Yorkshire they always tell little jokes like this but also put Rough and ready for whoever is in the punch line.

Read something a little more rude for rough and ready. ( Airey A . Johhny )

I,m sure you must have had youngsters like this back home who don,t hold back with their comments.

I don,t mind admitting i was of a similar mischievous nature when i was very young and foolish.

It,s just a simple real life joke situation in a class room and isn,t meant to read like a school report by the way.

P.S.

Most Scouses i know also have a similar S.O.H. for real life situations, just like us Yorkies.

You misunderstand me, I was joking, I thought it was very good! I love the way kids can be shocking without trying.

ps I'm not a scouser, although I describe myself as an adopted scouser. I'm from Dublin - yes, similar SOH too!
