Well it's not so much an anthem, it's always referred to as simply The School Song...Oh Alma Mater Glorious, So great so grave so good...
What's so weird about schools having songs? :confused:

There's no point arguing with religious fanatics, you could present an argument that proves something beyond doubt, and they'll still believe whatever they believed in the first place...all you can do is hope it's not contagious :eek:

Yeah, we had a school song. We would sing it on school trips, on foreign buses where noone knew what we were going on about. I think a fair few of us were drunk.

The joys of Habs. My school doesn't to my knowledge have any such thing. Probably do but I pay so little attention in assemblies I have never noticed.

my school doesnt even have assemblies, that im aware of ....
we did however have bbqs at parks with crates of beer and the like, the teachers and students alike used to love it. I found it boring...

1. Dark side of the Moon by Pink Floyd
2. Moon Safari by Air (seems like good stranded music doesn't it?)
3. Transatlanticism by Death Cab for Cutie
4. The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails (for when I'm annoyed at being stuck on a desert island)
5. Forty Licks by the Rolling Stones
6. The Best of Kings by King's College Cam choir.

I've just downloaded that album and it's really good

Well got the filling - felt a bit daft as I was visibly shaking even though I was trying not to (hate injections) and the dentist said 'would you like to hold the nurse's hand'. 'Erm, no thanks' *feels a prat* :redface:

Think it helped actually - don't feel quite as much dread at thought of needles as did before (as it didn't hurt much).

Disappointed how quickly the singalongathon died! *Hello Dolly, well hello, Dolly*. Best musical ever.

When i had a doctor play with my mouth he used small anthestic, a numb tongue is soo cool

The time when I had an anesthetic in my mouth at the dentist I ended up drooling the pink stuff you swish about in your mouth at the end :redface:

Yes - an injection in inside of cheek. Yuck. Trying not to swallow/drool the swilling stuff is really hard with a numb mouth! I failed on both accounts :rolleyes:

That sounds horrid tctc!

I had 4 teeth out (just got a brace) a few weeks ago, spread over 2 appointments.
4 injections per appointment, including ones that went in the roof of my mouth and curved in towards the teeth as they went in. They were fun.

ouch...

Did I say I feel better about needles? I think I lied.
