Funnily enough, Another teacher also fell in the exact same spot. (I'm an ex-teacher). The job was for a catholic school reception teacher. I didn't get it, my nerves were shot after that.

Our bench table was on the edge of the grass next to some bushes. It was all going well when my friend stood up to use the facilities the change in balance caused the table to fall off the grass it flipped up and shot me backwards into the bushes pint in hand. Cue huge gales of laughter even from my "friend". Carefully and dripping with beer I made my way to the toilets and just went home.BLTPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06564846497205095201noreply@blogger.com
