Gawd! We used to say "What a chiz" at school. Or was it "swizz"?

Also used to hold up an unwanted object like a pen and shout "Quiz?" and anybody who wanted it would shout "Ego!" (Who? - I!)

Spiffing stuff, eh?

you can buy secondhand hardback copies, including first editions. Something to hand on to the kids.

The great thing is that they are still funny even though I can't imagine many people on this forum went to a 1950s boarding Prep School.

Remember the Molesworth automatic thank you letter, for instance?
