When my son did drama, they were taught RP 

I had elecution lessons 

J didn't, but obviously 'talked posh' because I was asked if I had had elecution lessons.

I’m now singing the Dashing White Sergeant 

Thumping around the hall when the weather was too bad to do games outside😂

Perhaps I never took it so seriously, did you get frustrated because you found it difficult Kaytee?...... I am of the temperament that if I 'get it' I succeed...if I don't I tend to decide it must be because I am not interested.........

I just can’t imagine how it must have felt to be in a world war 

I can imagine, but, hopefully most children still had the 'spark' of childhood to enjoy life as it was..............

Not really Syd...I was and am useless at maths, not that bad at Latin, but at that time I couldn't see the point of learning a dead language

My mum was at secondary school during WWII, but my dad left school and joined the Navy and saw a fair bit of action, but never spoke about much of his experiences.

My parents or family never spoke about it much either.........mind you I would love to ask now, but, when I was young I might have thought 'Don't mention the War',,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
