Contents

  • A term at Linbury Court School would not be complete without JEnnings and Darbishire getting up to something. But this term exceeds all others in "hoo-hah's" as Darbishire would say. There was a photographic expedition which started off quietly enough; there was a guinea pig brought to the school by a well-meaning but misguided grandmother; there was a school inspector ..............
