There was a lot of it about when I was growing up. My mother warned me, though, and despite receiving several offers to view gentlemen's puppies, kittens and, in one case, pheasants, I turned most of them down.


But then, in the 70s, corporal punishment was commonplace, teachers smoked and sometimes drank in class and sexism was rife. The streets were filthy, the economy was broken and people knitted their own clothes. We've, thankfully, come a long way since then.


Which is probably why these offences are coming to light now rather than in the days when at least some level of abuse was taken for granted. Whether it will make any difference is anyone's guess, but I, for one, won't mind too much if the culprits have some awkward explaining to do. It's none too soon for any of them.

    • Hello.   Thanks Nigel and Hparker 😀   I've got new slots available for new students looking for a piano teacher or guitar teacher.   You could start in the new term beginning September, or I'm also available adhoc-styles through the summer holidays at times.   I teach all ages, in most styles, in lots of different ways according to how you learn/like to learn.   Give me a call or text on 07730 402336.   I have connections to lots of performance opportunities/networks too.   I run regular events /student concerts, and play in bands/perform.   Natalie. 
    • So do I, but I think they are in trouble as well.  Anyway, that space wouldn't be big enough.
    • I'm not talking about Starmer. I was responding to a post which  said that  Corbyn was unelectable. How people voted in the "more hotly contested election" is irrelevant. Corbyn wasn't leading the Labour Party then. Starmer was. And the turnout for Labour reflects that. 
    • Reeves says she's in charge and no no's Rayners plan, what happens now?
