Random question. I was forced by my mother to do elocution lessons at school in the seventies and have a vague memory of doing an exam; must have been 77/78 ish. Am I alone or does anyone else have recall lol. At one point I think I had to do a Winnie the Pooh poem and also had to be the fairy godmother in a Cinderella sketch. Or was it just a bad dream?

I remember

The fair haired nurse was a flirt.
Stately spanish galleon sailing through the isthmus...........
The centipede was happy...........

at a girls grammar school in the 1960s in Liverpool. The lessons were taught by the headmistress.
