School Proms

[Ossian]

School proms in the UK?  This is a thing?

Have been for a while now, Hudds. 

Young folk arrive in stretch limos, sidesaddle on horseback (that's true, by the way), all manner of excess. If America has shit to sell, we're buying.

I must be living in an alternative reality.  Which is better than reality.

Seriously, why are the parents not telling them to stop Yanking about!!(?) Grrrrrr.

Stick with it; it's the only realistic way of retaining any semblance of sanity.

I left school 19 years ago, limos and black tie/ball gowns were not the norm at all, 2 years later when I left 6th form they were though. It felt a bit extravagant at the time, primary school kids doing it certainly feels wrong though.

Prepare them for a life of excess ... with or without the means to fund it .

Struck off for two years for that. Worrying.

How long before the stretched limo, horse to be ridden sidesaddle or a jcb if that is the want, has to be funded by the tax payer for low income families, so their little cherub's don't feel deprived.
