View Full Version : Stupid school pupils
How stupid the school pupils of Millburn Academy, Inverness, are to paint graffiti on their school roof urging al-Qaeda terrorists to bomb it.
The pilot of a small plane spotted it from the air and alerted school chiefs to the white painted slogan.
What a sick joke.
It was painted in white emulsion - hardly the act of wanton criminals - more like just a misguided prank I fancy.
I remember, when I was at school, a number of us picking up a member of staff's car and carrying it into a basement area - tricky to move - that one.

Aye, Golach, your faultless logic rises to the surface again eh? :lol:

Of course it is only the act of wise pranksters. Everyone knows that a sick joke requires avocado gloss paint (preferably Crown Solo) to get its point across successfully.
The car incident, was this last week and was it Mr Traill's car?
Gee whiz, no wonder the kids are so bad when the teachers are still at the old japes.

Hardly likely that al-qaeda have millburn academy on their hit list.;)
As DW said, it was a misguided prank that is all.
Probably just an act of vandalaism by the IRA kids. :lol:

When we were kids did we not wish often that the school would be blown up or catch fire so we did not have to attend.I think this is a foolish prank by youngsters with no thought of the consequences of their actions or how some people may feel about it.We are all young and not so wise at some point.If our school had caught fire or blown up we never gave a thought to anyone being injured......thoughtless kids up to no good thats what I think.

The Thurso High School car incident
Was when a number of us picked up a small car and wedged it between the pillar and wall of the building at the covered front entrance. We had to lift it back out again after a while (seem to remember lots of grovelling by the heid chiel) coz there was no way it was going to be driven out!
i remember when my school DID blow up!
it was the bulding that housed years 6, 7 and 8
it was between the Gym and the building that held years 4 and 5
the night it blew there was a basketball game in the gym
now there is the width of a street between the buildings
it was a miracle how it went.. the explosion went to the left.. so that it blew into the empty class room.. you could hear the boom for about 10 -15 miles and felt the explosion for a good five miles or so!
thankfully none of the children or parents were harmed.. but it blew the entire building to rubble .. and all the windows, doors and desks away in the years 4 and 5 building.. will have a look see if i can google any old headlines.
they said that a child has accidently left the gas on it the science lab and a spark from the vending machine is what set it all off...

Was this Mrs Thom's car (vague recollections of it being a fiat) circa 1983/4? I remember helping to move her car but I couldn't remember where it ended up - terrible memory![lol]
I remember oone year (must have been around 1963) when one lad took retribution against the OTT discipline dished out by Dragon Duncan. He dropped a banger down her petrol tank and wrote the car off. Don't know who it was - and it wasn't me!:cool:

Been reading this thread, some of the pranks were priceless.
Only thing I can remember was humming in classroom, teacher could not tell who it was and ended up in going nuts. I mean literally, last I heard she was in Craig Dunain or New Craigs as its now known. Nothing on the scale previously mentioned.:lol:

There was alot that hummed in school never mind having thought for the teachers what about the pupils. hehehehe
I said what happened, not what I did. I actually really liked the teacher but I was in a class of teenage numpties who thought it really funny. :(
