Jess (PS52F) [224] I've only got a bit of French and German so I can help you with the essay ... if you like.
Catriona (PS52C) [225] Right, and what did you write?
[226] Hang on ... erm what was the title again? ...
Jess (PS52F) [227] What is it about Eddie's behaviour in this episode that enables Alfiera to predict the outcome of the play?
[228] ... Oh yeah and you've got erm between four page forty five [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [229] Fort forty five
Jess (PS52F) [230] Okay basically you say that, well I ... [sigh] I made most of mine up, erm like I said, but his erratic behaviour, the way he gets so frustrated so, you know, really fast ... I mean don't use these words cos this is actually what [laughing] I said []
Catriona (PS52C) [231] No I'm just writing down what you what you said.
Jess (PS52F) [232] But his, his but basically his behaviour is that you, you can tell the way he reacts, you know he gets like really het up and really excited, you can tell that whatever Alfiera's gonna say it's not gonna really gonna make much difference.
[233] Unless Alfiera's gonna say right he's
Catriona (PS52C) [234] Unless he's gonna agree with him.
Jess (PS52F) [235] yeah basically unless he agrees with him whatever
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [236] Alfiera says is irrelevant because Eddie's gonna go out and and take action himself anyway.
Catriona (PS52C) [237] He's already made his mind up.
Jess (PS52F) [238] Basically, yeah.
[239] He's, well not necessarily made his mind but you can suggest that he might, may have done and also it seems that Alfiera is slightly half hearted in the way he erm like tries to convince Eddie cos it seems that ... i it, I get the feeling that Alfiera already knows and just thinking well there's no point in getting really het up about it, so he, he tries, he says look it's not a good idea but in the end
Catriona (PS52C) [240] He says at the end doesn't he, he says well it isn't a beginning so
Jess (PS52F) [241] Yeah but he's not really really a ... er at er er look cos when it comes in
Catriona (PS52C) [242] no at the beginning Alfiera and er it was at this time [...] ... oh ... but ... I don't quite, oh no no no no cos this
Jess (PS52F) [243] Cos I used this look, I said that erm I'd re I had represented his father in an accident case some years before and I was acquainted with the family in a casual way, and I said this [clears throat] may suggest, because he was saying you can make up and you can, this is a bit when you can use your imagination, and I said this may suggest that his father, you know he'd like, because it ... the way he says that, I'd represented his father, I was acquainted, you know ... maybe that he knows [clears throat] he's used to that kind of erm behaviour from the family, you know, and he knows what Eddie's like his fa I don't know I might be completely wrong but I used my imagination there. ... [clears throat] ...
Catriona (PS52C) [244] And doesn't he finish, where's the ... final bit?
Jess (PS52F) [245] He finishes it with erm ... Eddie goes I'll see you around somewhere or something ...
Catriona (PS52C) [246] Erm I'll see you around.
Jess (PS52F) [247] Do you want that Locket?

Catriona (PS52C) [283] Course he doesn't.
[284] ... You're fine.
Jess (PS52F) [285] He probably would be much nastier.
[286] Thing is though it's not that I really care about him personally, you know it's not that I'm thinking oh it's a real shame, but it's just, and usually if, if people are complete dicks I think well er you know, sod them
Catriona (PS52C) [287] Sod it.
Jess (PS52F) [288] and I'll just, I, you know, I don't need someone like that but the point is that he, if he knows you don't like him, he goes out of his way to make things difficult for you.
Catriona (PS52C) [289] Yeah, and as well
Jess (PS52F) [290] And you can't really avoid him.
Catriona (PS52C) [291] he's friendly with Sal.

Catriona (PS52C) [556] sitting there, you know, shaking, I wouldn't have touched any food.
[557] Er the it was er usually gen well, you know, it was quite good apart from my last two years.
Jess (PS52F) [558] Mine are usually really good except er somehow I think I'm gonna get a really shit one here.
[559] Mind you the shit I used to get away with at school, you know, just winding the teachers up and like generally taking the piss, I'd always pay attention and I'd always, always get good marks but somehow I think they seem to take pissing about slightly more seriously here.
Catriona (PS52C) [560] Here?
[561] I, I get the feeling that because they don't really know ... especially if you're caught pissing around in quad, yeah, and er it's by a teacher that you don't know, a ma or a master or something ... they don't pay much attention to it because you're a girl and they don't know you and ... I get that feeling anyway, I feel slightly ... like we c could actually get away with more.
[562] If it was, if it was that caught us then yeah
Jess (PS52F) [563] Mm.
Catriona (PS52C) [564] Fine cos he has got all
Jess (PS52F) [565] Pissing about in quad as what?

Catriona (PS52C) [572] Yeah the master walked past, if they had been boys ... they would have said something, you know, go into your study and do some work, do something you know, but because they were girls th we were girls they didn't
Jess (PS52F) [573] Really shit on us.
Catriona (PS52C) [574] no and they didn't pay much attention, they always seem intimidated of us
Jess (PS52F) [575] Mm.
Catriona (PS52C) [576] not intimidated but just because they don't know who we are.
[577] I suppose it must be quite hard, if you don't teach someone you just like ... have to shout at them, I dunno.

Jess (PS52F) [669] Big cup, big Kath. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [670] [laugh] ... I wonder, my old housemistress actually got erm thrown out of her school, she was a brilliant housemistress, she was really young, really pretty ... twenty, twenty eight or something, really easygoing and she like, she went out of her way to, she bent over back [laugh] [laughing] yeah she went out of her way [] to get us erm you know
Jess (PS52F) [671] Out of shit.
Catriona (PS52C) [672] out of shit and she oh had a different bloke in her flat every night and you never, you, if you ever wanted to see her that was the one really annoying thing you couldn't really go and see her and she was hardly ever about.
Jess (PS52F) [673] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [674] We had, we had a house matron as well but anyway she was kicked out of her school for sleeping with all the sixth form blokes.
Jess (PS52F) [675] Really?
Catriona (PS52C) [676] Yeah.
[677] ... So I can just see Miss doing it.
[678] ... Or at least old ones that have come back or something.
Jess (PS52F) [679] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [680] I bet she has!
Jess (PS52F) [681] Mm.
[682] Wouldn't surprise me.
[683] Aha!
Catriona (PS52C) [684] She's not very attractive when she's done up but she's attractive when she's like sweating it out in her cycling shorts [laugh] ...
Jess (PS52F) [685] That's one thing I wish I looked good in sports cl Sara looks good in sports clothes.
[686] So does Kate .
Catriona (PS52C) [687] So does [...] I don't think Kate is fat at all. ...
Jess (PS52F) [688] Who says she is?
[689] ... It's only because she's pretty and people take notice of her and they say oh she's a bit fat.
Catriona (PS52C) [690] What about Gemma ... you don't think she's fat do you?
[691] ... Foxy was saying how they were all standing on the balcony saying that she really oughtn't to wear those shorts cos she's got such thunder thighs.
[692] And I, and he said to me oh you're so paranoid Catriona, you always wear your tracksuit bums, you know, you're so ... stupid to get so worked up about it.
[693] He says that to me and then he turns round and says that they were all taking the piss out of Gemma because she's got thunder thighs and she hasn't, that's the whole point!
[694] ... I don't like to, I really dread to think what, what g goes on, what gets said in the rugby changing rooms.
Jess (PS52F) [695] Especially when ... you're not gonna like me for this because, you're not gonna like me for this but I think one think about Foxy is he is two faced.
Catriona (PS52C) [696] Is he two faced?
Jess (PS52F) [697] I think he is.
Catriona (PS52C) [698] Why do you say that, tell me why?
Jess (PS52F) [699] Well Kirsty said something to me and I said oh I don't think so, I said I think he's, you know, I, I've heard that, you know, he seems a quite sincere kind of bloke, he seems nice but I don't know ... that's what I think but if he
Catriona (PS52C) [700] What did Kirsty say?
Jess (PS52F) [701] Kirsty she said, I said, I said [...] Foxy cos she's got off with Foxy
Catriona (PS52C) [702] Yeah I know.
Jess (PS52F) [703] erm ... and ... and er she says quite frankly no
Catriona (PS52C) [704] Said no what?
Jess (PS52F) [705] Shit is that [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [706] But frankly no what?
Jess (PS52F) [707] Frankly she goes, she goes yeah he's alright she said but he's too two faced ... and I said that doesn't sound like him, I said I thought he was quite nice and she goes yeah well he is ... she says he says one thing to you and then you find out that he's said something completely different and you hear another side of it.
[708] But the thing is you know that's one thing, I can't bear people like that because he's just
Catriona (PS52C) [709] Nor can I ...
Jess (PS52F) [710] if he said that about Gemma , and he's quite friendly with her as well
Catriona (PS52C) [711] He didn't say it nastily, he just said that they were all saying that she had thunder thighs, he didn't say I thought, I mean him personally.
Jess (PS52F) [712] Oh right, oh.
Catriona (PS52C) [713] But I,does but when you say that now though, cos I, he slagged Kirsty off to me, he just said oh she's just really pretentious and she'll, she'll talk to you and then as soon as someone cooler comes in the room she'll turn round and she'll completely ignore you and you're left and she'll do that like at a dinner party or something and you're left standing there ... feeling a real id you know, you know that feeling don't you when you're talking to someone and suddenly they desert you and you're all on your own in a room?
[714] That's a horrid feeling.
Jess (PS52F) [715] Like [...] had at the beginning?
Catriona (PS52C) [716] Yeah.
Jess (PS52F) [717] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [718] Erm he, he said oh yeah she'll do that cos someone cool will come and she'll want to impress them.
[719] And he said this and he wasn't I mean particularly, he said oh she's just, you know she, she's like sailed through Haileybury, she gets out of everything, she, he, he's really keen on the sports side of things here so I don't know why he got so het up about it but he said it really ... er pissed him off the way she erm
Jess (PS52F) [720] [...] sport.
Catriona (PS52C) [721] yeah she never does sport, she always get out of it, I can't see that that affects him in any way but apparently she always makes up excuses and stuff, and then that night at supper, he's sitting there, you know, all
Jess (PS52F) [722] Over her.
[723] Well not [...] but yeah [...] in with her.
Catriona (PS52C) [724] w well not over her but, but really, really really chummy yeah, and I thought ... and he'd just been saying how pretentious she was ... most of the evening ... most of the afternoon I mean.
[725] You know I mean I didn't think anything of it and I thought well I'm a bit like that though too cos I say things about people and then I'll talk to them
Jess (PS52F) [726] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [727] don't I?
[728] I mean I think, I, I just dro brushed it aside but erm ... cos it's only human I mean I, in that sense I'm two faced as well
Jess (PS52F) [729] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [730] because you think, I mean I come up here and I slag someone off to you or ... yeah, and then I'll go downstairs and I'll sit with them at lunch and have a perfectly normal conversation with them
Jess (PS52F) [731] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [732] and have a laugh with them.
Jess (PS52F) [733] Well that is, that's natural, everybody does that.
Catriona (PS52C) [734] Exactly.
[735] But did she say that he was worse than that?
Jess (PS52F) [736] No I don't know, I don't know
Catriona (PS52C) [737] She implied a little
Jess (PS52F) [738] I don't know she just said that he was two faced.
[739] Then again I think most of the people here are, I don't know what you can get away with.
Catriona (PS52C) [740] But everyone is in a way, I mean I know I'm being
Jess (PS52F) [741] Phil's not two faced.
Catriona (PS52C) [742] Is he not?
Jess (PS52F) [743] No.
Catriona (PS52C) [744] I don't think he's very genuine.
[745] ... I really don't I think he's acting the whole time, I don't think he knows he's doing it.
Jess (PS52F) [746] He's not no he's not gen he's not, I wouldn't call him genuine but he's not two faced, if he doesn't like you he tells you it doesn't he?
[747] Mind you I don't know
Catriona (PS52C) [748] I don't know.
Jess (PS52F) [749] what he says behind my back, I mean I tell you someone else who's two faced, Marcus is two faced.
[750] Marcus is one of the most two faced people I know, he's said some really nasty shit about me and I
Catriona (PS52C) [751] Has he?
Jess (PS52F) [752] I heard about it and he said it here as well
Catriona (PS52C) [753] What did he say?
Jess (PS52F) [754] after my second week he said I'd got the gift of the gab or something and I always manage to wind people round my finger and always always get what I want and everything and I always took my way out of shit and I heard this from Matt , you can imagine how upset I was like on my ... I tell you er I heard about it on the field weekend cos I was here and Matt was here as well and, and I just thought my God I've been friends with this bloke, we were having baths together when we were like two years old ... and, and I've known him all my life and if you can't trust him well where does the, where, well you know, who can you trust?
[755] And I thought for fuck's sake, and he is like that, his mum as well is like that.
Catriona (PS52C) [756] Is she?
[757] Er are your parents friendly?
[758] ... Oh yeah cos they're your godparents aren't they?
Jess (PS52F) [759] Yeah well she's friendly, well my mum used to be really really good friends with her and then my parents split up and, and like they, they went like water to my dad's side
Catriona (PS52C) [760] Oh right.
Jess (PS52F) [761] because ... my dad was more friendly with [...] but I mean ... I don't know, but I can't bear people like that I wish they'd just, you know
Catriona (PS52C) [762] But then if you think about it we are equally as bad.
[763] Think abou we are.
[764] I know, I know it's
Jess (PS52F) [765] Yeah [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [766] awful when you hear about yourself, it is horrible and you hear something that someone's said about you and you think how can they, they just spent the whole day with me or they've spent, you know exactly your situation like, couple of years of your life with you
Jess (PS52F) [767] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [768] you think what an arsehole but
Jess (PS52F) [769] Whole life with them.
Catriona (PS52C) [770] okay whole life, whatever, you think well
Jess (PS52F) [771] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [772] what a bastard, how dare they
Jess (PS52F) [773] Exactly.
Catriona (PS52C) [774] but think about all the people that we are nice to, I mean look at James , a prime example, have I ever been a bitch to him, never, but I [laughing] stand up here, when I see him I'm [] like oh yeah ha ha, you know, laugh along with his jokes and
Jess (PS52F) [775] I'm a bitch to him, I tell him, I say you love yourself James.
Catriona (PS52C) [776] Oh yeah I would if I knew him and that but
Jess (PS52F) [777] Yes.
Catriona (PS52C) [778] obviously cos of what happened at Lucy's party I, I [...] on that situation but okay then, let's not take James but somebody like that
Jess (PS52F) [779] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [780] I, I mean Dave , I've spent quite a lot of my time slagging him off but [laughing] to his face I'm really nice [] .

Jess (PS52F) [784] But, but I said but, but that thing Trem, Trem like when she said to me don't tell you but I told you because it concerned us
Catriona (PS52C) [785] Yeah, yeah obviously that's different.

[964] Well ... they tend to be in the schools.
Lucy (PS52G) [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [965] Yeah, so you see the few selected ones that come from other schools and you instantly assume that their school must be much more er much better looking than ours.

Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [980] Yeah.
Lucy (PS52G) [981] What have we got next?

3 (Tape 142603)

Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [982] Basically erm well no she came in and she said something like oh he had his hand on Carrie's knee.
Catriona (PS52C) [983] That's it, that's it.
[984] He
Lucy (PS52G) [985] That's off.
Catriona (PS52C) [986] at lunchtime, no, and I tell you what I said, I mean you don't know any of this, okay?
[987] He erm at lunchtime had his hand on Carrie's knee ... [...] and
Lucy (PS52G) [988] That's all?
Catriona (PS52C) [989] Yeah and when she got up to leave he just like patted her on the bum kind of thing and Jess saw it and Jess thought oh he's trying to make me jealous
Lucy (PS52G) [990] When Carrie got up?
Catriona (PS52C) [991] Yeah Carrie went and as she, as she left he patted her on the bum ... which is, you know, a bit friendly and I said to Jess well look, put it this way, cos she's really, she flirts a lot
Lucy (PS52G) [992] Who?
Catriona (PS52C) [993] Jess ... with Phil.
Lucy (PS52G) [994] Yeah, seen.
Catriona (PS52C) [995] And she like goes up to him quite freely and just kisses him on the lips, you know okay fair enough people ... have friendships like that but it's not a kind of kiss on the cheek it is as if there's something in it, you know, as if always she's rubbing it into him.
Lucy (PS52G) [996] But it's [...] it's also his best friends
Catriona (PS52C) [997] Exactly, that's what I'm saying, so I said to Jess, you know have, just be a bit patient, be tolerant with it because ... you know, he's probably feeling, he might, I mean it just be revenge.
[998] Anyway I went to see Foxy at lunchtime and erm ... and he said that ... erm er and I mentioned it to him and I said you know don't go up to Sal and say Jess is feeling like erm you know, feeling that he's, feeling really jealous because er if, if Sal is trying to get back that will just like please him, you know, if he is trying, if that's the whole aim of the whole, you know, the operation then, then he'll just feel pleased and it will also embarrass Jessica and she doesn't want ... and if, and if it's not, if it was nothing, you know, she'll feel embarrassed so please don't say anything ... and he said no no I'll just make some subtle, subtle comment and he went up to, he told me that he went up to Sal and he goes erm ... and he says how's everything going with Jessica ... and Sal goes yeah it's good and, and he go erm cos er Phil erm [tut] cos Foxy goes oh cos it's, it's going really well with me and Catriona, it's going really well ... I'm really enjoying it, what about you, you know, and Sal goes yeah, it's really good ... and Foxy goes erm you know is it, is it a long term thing then, you looking for a long term thing do you think ... and Sal goes yeah, what about you and Foxy goes yeah yeah definitely yeah, you know, cos he was doing it subtly so I came back and I said to Jess you know really,an and Foxy said there was nothing ... strange about, it was no f you know it was definitely to fe s f erm Sal was er you know being truthful, there was not like erm yeah ... well yeah you know and trying to get off the subject, it wasn't it was completely, yeah, it's brilliant, going really well, really enjoying it and it's gonna be long term sort of thing.
[999] That's what Foxy said, I mean he couldn't, he c he might have s you know ... said comment other than that but basically I said look you've got nothing to worry about.
[1000] But erm she's basically just feeling, you know, this monotonous business.
[1001] I can understand it cos I, I, when I'm feeling a bit down ... it gets to me, you know I think oh God [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [1002] Yeah but you imagine it, you're going out with someone and you see them like every day ... and then during the holidays you won't be able to see them
Catriona (PS52C) [1003] No but y
Lucy (PS52G) [1004] and then, no like this Christmas he'll be in
Catriona (PS52C) [1005] Yeah, in Saudi
Lucy (PS52G) [1006] Saudi Arabia
Catriona (PS52C) [1007] and it's, no but here it's only the holidays that really matter, if it wasn't for the holidays I really wouldn't bother because here it really is so plotted out isn't it?
[1008] Lunchtime, you know go to their study, supper time they come here, after nine o'clock if you haven't got Romeo and Juliet then you go down there, you know what I mean?
[1009] It's like all plotted and you have like fifteen minutes with them, then half an hour and then ... it's awful, it's, it's so ... you feel like you're a
Lucy (PS52G) [1010] Routine.
Catriona (PS52C) [1011] yeah, completely, and erm and if it wasn't for the holidays I'd really think oh for God's sake, bugger this, you know, I can't be bothered.
Lucy (PS52G) [1012] Yeah but can you imagine cos then like she'll go out to the pub or something, get drunk and then like someone will come up to her and she'll be like no I can't cos he's in Saudi Arabia, you know it'll suddenly er hit her ... I mean why not, he'll never know.
Catriona (PS52C) [1013] Yeah, almost.
Lucy (PS52G) [1014] I mean she's a, she's a pretty girl and she's
Catriona (PS52C) [1015] Very.
Lucy (PS52G) [1016] very outgoing.
[1017] She's got a really nice personality and she's not gonna be the kind of person to say no I can't because I've got so and so in Saudi
Catriona (PS52C) [1018] Especially not with James it sounds, it sounds like she fancies him.
Lucy (PS52G) [1019] Really?
[1020] ... Er she was flirting with him yesterday [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [1021] Yeah.
[1022] She's always flirting with him, she flirts with everyone.
[1023] She's just, I mean you know how people do, I mean I don't, she's not doing it nastily I mean she's just naturally like that I think ... and erm ... yeah ... I just thought ... she's bound do, yeah she could get off with someone else.
[1024] But then again Phil will be around.
Lucy (PS52G) [1025] It makes no difference though does it?
Catriona (PS52C) [1026] [yawning] No, it does because [] Phil'll tell Sal and then she'd know it'd be completely the end of everything cos Sal wouldn't put up with that sort of thing.
Lucy (PS52G) [1027] Sal er Phil likes her.
Catriona (PS52C) [1028] Yeah but ... it's, it would be jeopardizing their friendship, Sal and Phil, they're best friends.
Lucy (PS52G) [1029] Mm.
Catriona (PS52C) [1030] I don't think, I think Phil, although he's a complete arsehole at times I
Lucy (PS52G) [1031] I don't like him.
Catriona (PS52C) [1032] No I, I'm not sure how I feel.
[1033] No he's, he's, he's just out to impress people, I mean he looks around to see if you're watching him ... and he'll erm ... no, yeah he's acting the whole time, I don't really, I don't know if he knows who he is you know?
Lucy (PS52G) [1034] Mm.
Catriona (PS52C) [1035] Anyway erm ... she er er I don't, I, although he's, you know, probably after her, I really don't think he'd risk his friendship with Sal because of
Lucy (PS52G) [1036] No.
Catriona (PS52C) [1037] because of a girl, I really think he's loyal in that way, in that sense, because they are very close ... they have a laugh and I know when we're with them they're always like seem to be impressing everyone but I'm sure when they're together they have like, you know, [laughing] human conversations [] , they must do, they can't always be talking about ... screwing and [laugh] you know, which girls have got big tits and all that
Lucy (PS52G) [laugh]
Catriona (PS52C) [1038] yeah like big Kath.
[1039] Big Kath.
Lucy (PS52G) [1040] [laugh] So she hasn't lost her virginity?
Catriona (PS52C) [1041] Kathy?
Lucy (PS52G) [1042] Mm.
Catriona (PS52C) [1043] No.
[1044] But Jim really hurt her because erm when she was going out with him he was a virgin and then erm ... they came back, you notice things were a bit sort of sort of on the rocks when they came back at first?
[1045] Do you remember?
[1046] It was quite difficult between them, you know she wasn't sure, do you remember?
[1047] I, I didn't know him that well and I heard her saying oh I don't know what's happening, you know, and she'd like [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [1048] Oh is she going out with him ... [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [1049] She was going out with him at the beginning of this term
Lucy (PS52G) [1050] Oh right.
Catriona (PS52C) [1051] and erm and they, and they
Lucy (PS52G) [1052] How far in did she ...
Catriona (PS52C) [1053] Oh only a couple of weeks, no they were standing in the common room and she knew he was a virgin right and they were still going out and she knew he was a virgin when they first started going out and Rox goes oh so are you a virgin then ... erm erm [tut] James and he goes no ... and she was still going out with him and she knew that it wasn't with her, obviously, and, and Roxy goes oh who was it then and he goes oh just two, two birds I met in erm ... Portugal ... and
Lucy (PS52G) [1054] Portugal?
Catriona (PS52C) [1055] Yeah.
Lucy (PS52G) [1056] Whereabouts?
Catriona (PS52C) [1057] Oh I don't know [laugh] [laughing] for God's sake how do I know [] ?
[1058] Erm and ... yeah two birds I met in Portugal and, and then Kathy just like stormed out.
[1059] It was a really insensitive thing to say.
[1060] ... Don't you think?
Lucy (PS52G) [1061] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [1062] Really pissed off, oh I haven't done any prep at all.
[1063] Thing is I, I don't know if I'm just imagining that I haven't got any, this this [...] doesn't really work.
Lucy (PS52G) [1064] Or if I really haven't. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [1065] Fridays.
[1066] I can't work on Fridays.
[1067] I felt really erm ... did you get, by the way,th that letter I put on your desk
Lucy (PS52G) [1068] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [1069] you've got to ask your parents to ... wear those badges ... to come to erm the meeting with the badges on.
Lucy (PS52G) [1070] What's the letter about?
Catriona (PS52C) [1071] Some cookery book I think I heard.
Lucy (PS52G) [1072] It's probably about what time they're coming back in.
Catriona (PS52C) [1073] It's really boring.
[1074] Erm ... I felt really organized cos Mr said that I was too hyperactive and I needed to have, I had to do something constructive so he sent me out [clears throat] posting well giving everyone their letters ... and I felt really ... I mean he didn't do it nastily, he just said I was flitting about and needed [laughing] something to do [] ... and so ... it was really fun.
[1075] Do you know, it sounds awful yeah but ... Mr er Mr and erm [tut] and Mrs seem really, like I've come in late so many times, yeah?
[1076] You know, when I'm not supposed to be out and I'll come in at ten thirty when all the others [...] and they don't say anything.
[1077] Nothing at all.
[1078] And George says she's come in and like they ban her from going out.
[1079] ... They ban her from like nine forty five [...] ...
Lucy (PS52G) [1080] Don't know.
Catriona (PS52C) [1081] Maybe they just think I'm at rehearsal.
Lucy (PS52G) [1082] I reck yeah I reckon they might, I reckon that she likes [...] .
Catriona (PS52C) [1083] No she doesn't.
Lucy (PS52G) [1084] She doesn't?
Catriona (PS52C) [1085] No she likes James . ...
Lucy (PS52G) [1086] Do you reckon she'll pull him?
Catriona (PS52C) [1087] No.
[1088] She said but I'm not gonna do anything about it but I just think he's nice.
[1089] ... Oh and something else I heard yeah and this doesn't get anywhere cos Lucy erm told me and [...] didn't tell anyone but erm she was talking to Tom about ... erm ... Laura and Dave ... and apparently s while George and erm Dave were going out they actually planned they were gonna get back together.
[1090] ... Laura and Dave.
[1091] ... They, they're just not getting back right now, I don't know if it's just to be sensitive to her or whether it's just because, you know, they're gonna see each o I mean they live on the same road, they'll probably see each other this weekend.
Lucy (PS52G) [1092] Really?
Catriona (PS52C) [1093] Yeah.
[1094] ... But please don't, I mean don't say that to George cos that'll really hurt her
Lucy (PS52G) [1095] No I'm not going to.
Catriona (PS52C) [1096] The only, I reckon the only reason she's upset about it is because she can't have him, that's wh you know when you can't have something then you want it.
Lucy (PS52G) [1097] Mm.
Catriona (PS52C) [1098] Oh screw!
[1099] Bugger I've got such a headache.
[1100] My head's killing me.

Catriona (PS52C) [1159] It will be a [...] ball. ...
Lucy (PS52G) [1160] Dunno.
Catriona (PS52C) [1161] [...] , that's the company.
[1162] ... Last year's,th the f the first stockings I ever went to was brilliant, they had Right Said Fred live
Lucy (PS52G) [1163] Cos someone said that they went last year, George said they went last year [...] brilliant.
Catriona (PS52C) [1164] Last year's was no la it can't be the same one then cos last year's was absolutely terrible, the one I went to with Right Said Fred was amazing ... I think someone else did go to that, Sue-Anna or somebody?
[1165] She said it was br it was, I didn't think it was but it wa it was really good fun and also I was going out with Carl at the time and so, you know, in our big like little group ... big little group, our big group, that was a bit of a ... erm ... contradiction, erm in our big group ... [tut] and erm we knew masses of people and there were lots of [...] there and there were lots of Felixstowe people there and it was just a really good laugh and erm Right Said Fred were there and ... some other sort of ravey group, can't remember what now ... and then, no some techno group, and then erm so we all thought oh let's go for this, let's go,la this time last year we thought oh well let's go over to this one for a joke, you know, for old time's sake let's just go along and have a joke ... and we went and it was full of erm like they were all about fourteen, I suppose when we went we were all fourteen too ... but last year well most of my friends are sort of you know sixteen ... erm we went and it wasn't, it wasn't, it wasn't full at all and the place is huge and it says, it says on the thing, you know, two thousand people go and there must have been about four hundred at the most ... and it was really, and I, also I ha I was ill that day and it was really shit so ... if they said it was brilliant last year it probably wasn't the stockings because it was, nobody I met said it was, and also yeah the stockings and the feathers were put on the same day and there's competition between the two companies ... [...] does stocking and I've forgotten what feathers is, there's competition and so lots of people went to the feathers instead and the feathers had like too many people and the stockings had too lit too few.
[1166] ... So it could've been the feathers.
Lucy (PS52G) [1167] Yeah. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [1168] You'll have a brilliant time though. ...
Lucy (PS52G) [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [1169] If, if it's with, if you're with s if, if, I wouldn't advise it if you weren't going out with someone already ...
Lucy (PS52G) [1170] Why?
Catriona (PS52C) [1171] unless you were going with a group of friends ... cos you don't, you wouldn't meet anyone, you would,s seriously they were, last year they were like twelve years old.
[1172] [laughing] Fourteen years old [] .
[1173] We were all
Lucy (PS52G) [1174] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [1175] you know, cos we were all single I think all of us were and we were just going for a joke cos seriously it's just a cattle market at [...] ... you know you don't talk to people [laughing] well you do but [] ... it's just a laugh.
[1176] No wear erm wear yeah wear a tight dress ... and once you get in there so many other people are wearing exactly the same thing
Lucy (PS52G) [1177] But do you think my bum's big?
[1178] ... Do you think [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [1179] I don't think it is at all but I've never seen it.
[1180] [laugh] I mean I've never seen it in that context.
[1181] ... No ... don't worry about it, seriously, we all used to have this, yeah, we used to go on these manic diets
Lucy (PS52G) [1182] [...] wanna go but it's, it's just the thought
Catriona (PS52C) [1183] like ten weeks beforehand.
Lucy (PS52G) [1184] it's just the thought of ... I'd be, I just don't have the confidence.
Catriona (PS52C) [1185] Yes you do and, and also, another thing, and it's, in a way it was a bit annoying because we'd go on these like crash diets, you know, we'd get really nasty and s well not nasty and skinny we'd just get really skinny before we went cos you know we wouldn't eat anything except like fruit for a ... we, we'd eat, we'd go on a diet and then we wouldn't eat fruit for, wouldn't eat anything but fruit for the week before and so we'd, you know we'd like have flat stomachs and you feel, if you haven't eaten you feel thinner even if you're not, it's all, it's a bit, it's psychological isn't it?
[1186] You look at yourself and think hey I didn't have any food today so I look instantly, you, don't you find that?
[1187] You think you look thinner and you don't at all.
[1188] Erm and ... and yeah an and we were thinking oh yeah we look really good and we go along and, but there's so many other girls wearing exactly the same thing that you just blend in, you don't ... you know what I mean?
[1189] You don't stand out from anyone.
Lucy (PS52G) [1190] Yeah once I get there once I get there [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [1191] Exactly.
[1192] So once you're there you won't mind at all.
[1193] And it's al you always think, it's a real anti-climax because you, you've made so much thing about getting ready and getting there and when you ... when you do finally arrive there you're just exactly the same as the million others.
[1194] [laugh] Well hundred others.
Lucy (PS52G) [1195] What shoes do you wear?
Catriona (PS52C) [1196] [laughing] I wear [] ... I wear my big ones, my t you know the ones I wore for erm our party?
Lucy (PS52G) [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [1197] Make me about five eight ... four inches.
[1198] Four or five inches, really tall.
[1199] But they're thick they're not like [laughing] stiletto [] heels they're platforms.
[1200] ... You'll have a brilliant time, it's such a laugh ... but you can't drink, that's the only thing, you can't drink inside, they don't sell alcohol unless you've got I D ... and there's about four people there that are actually eighteen anyway.
[1201] ... [laugh] No you'll have a good time, seriously, it sounds like I'm putting you off, I don't mean to, it's not
Lucy (PS52G) [1202] It's like today when Jess put on that s that tight skirt ... that's what I would look like in one of them, I'd go out.
Catriona (PS52C) [1203] Did you think she went out in it?
[1204] ... I thought she looked really good. ...
Lucy (PS52G) [1205] I thought she went out, she went like that.
Catriona (PS52C) [1206] Oh I do too in things like that.
Lucy (PS52G) [1207] You don't though you haven't got the same shape as me ... I've got the same shape as her ... big hip bum ... no, big hip bones [laugh]
Catriona (PS52C) [1208] I've got huge hip bones.
[1209] I do go out, I swear to God I put on Zoey's tight skirt, you know the straight tight ones, they really don't suit me at all I really do look awful. ...
Lucy (PS52G) [1210] Yeah mm. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [1211] I'd die for some hot chocolate. ...
Lucy (PS52G) [1212] I want an orange.
Catriona (PS52C) [1213] You want an orange?

Catriona (PS52C) [1222] The balls?
[1223] They used, they used to be about ten quid and you, we all thought it was really good value and went to all of them but erm they've gone up to like eighteen pounds ... well that was the last one I went to last year so some of them are twenty two and I paid thirty for one of them but that was at the erm Savoy Hotel ... that little bluebird one, that's a real ... debs' ball.
Lucy (PS52G) [1224] Is it like your erm ... Jewish?
Catriona (PS52C) [1225] No, not at all, it's [...] boarding school.
[1226] Erm I think the stockings is turning slightly more Jewish cos I remember Katy [...] a friend of mine and ... who goes to Channing he, he had the same problem.
[1227] She's not Jewish but she erm ... was going on about how a lot of Channing people had started going and stuff and they're all ... JPs basically.
[1228] ... So I think it is turning like that but ... it w certainly wasn't when I went to most of them I didn't, I never met anybody from Channing or Highgate or l or from north London schools anyway.
[1229] ... They were more from erm ... [tut] ... I don't know, boarding schools everywhere, well known ones, lots of Etonians go ... Wellingtonians, Etonians ... I don't know, but ... yeah, they're quite good.
[1230] ... Oh sick!
[1231] ... This woman is so skinny. ...
Lucy (PS52G) [1232] Who?
Catriona (PS52C) [1233] She's nobody, she's just talking about erm how ... you tell yourself that your life will be perfect if you change the way you look but it's called, what do they call it?
[1234] Er it's called an imagined ugliness syndrome and it can lead to ... unnecessary plastic surgery or eating disorders.
[1235] Do you know I was thinking this the other day, do you think, say there was some girl like, let's just take Flick ... no, somebody, who do, who do, who do the people think's real, who do the blokes always, yeah Flick they think is a real frump don't they?
[1236] ... If she went away over the holidays and she had plastic surgery and she came back looking like Cindy Crawford or, I don't know, do you think ... people would react differently to her or do you think they'd be disgusted?
[1237] I think they'd be disgusted and say oh that's disgusting cos they know what she's really like.
Lucy (PS52G) [1238] They would be disgusted.
Catriona (PS52C) [1239] And they wouldn't touch her ... with a barge pole ... cos it's all plastic and all fake and people would just take the piss.
[1240] I'm sure.
[1241] ... [belch] Excuse me.
[1242] ... [laugh] ... I have got a problem actually and I'm gonna tell you this without recording it cos I don't want anyone to know.

6 (Tape 142606)

Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1366] If you have to translate any of these, when ... as soon as after
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1367] Loopy.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1368] or [laughing] [...] [] ... then you need to take especial care, alright?
[1369] ... Time ... time ... time ... time ... time ... time ... time ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [cough]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1370] time is like a Christmas card [...] , time, alright?
[1371] Any time you've got a time clause [shouting] clause, what's clause [] ? ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1372] End of a cat's leg [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [1373] Part of a statement
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...] [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1374] It's what's gonna happen in [...] it's gonna come down the chimney.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1375] Right every time you've got a floppy black time thing with a tail ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1376] that's the back of a cat.
[1377] Every time
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1378] What's its name? ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1379] every time then ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1380] I still don't see what the relevance of that, that [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1381] There's another one squashed behind my blackboard.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1382] Erm every time you've got those words there in [...] what I want you to do is pause ... [...] into the time clause
Catriona (PS52C) [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1383] [laughing] Oh dear [] . ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1384] and it is, it's gonna cost you marks, alright?
[1385] For example then all of you do the inimitable NMTs ... and would've lost a mark, [...] the real thing is when you've got a time clause stop, think and really focus on this meaning of the verb in the time clause, right?
[1386] There are little tricks, for example, if it's a time clause, when you think to yourself oh God it's one of those lists, you sit down and calm yourself, take a Valium or whatever it is and just apply yourselves to that, right, what the next point is so the first thing I want you to do is stop at this time clause, when you realize it's a time clause I want you to go trot trot trot trot trot trot trot trot trot trot trot trot trot trot to the main verb, alright?
[1387] Now the tense of the main verb, in other words not the bit in the when clause or the as soon as clause or whatever, normally ... virtually it gives it away because if it's future in the main ... the chances are extremely high that it's going to be future in French at least in the time clause.
[1388] ... Okay?
[1389] Shall we do another one of those and pick up something Neil said earlier
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1390] Yeah but I still don't understand what the boot's gotta do with it.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1391] What what?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1392] What that skating bit's to do with it.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1393] What what?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1394] That skating bit got's to do [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1395] It's a it's a bell so it's an alarm bell.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1396] Oh I see!
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1397] And whenever, whenever you see a time clause press alarm [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [cough]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1398] Anyway but what's the significance [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...] [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [clears throat] ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1399] Time ... right, [...] ... [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1400] so it looks like you've got future there, then you go trot trot trot trot trot trot trot trot back ... now you've got something slightly different there ... here ... you had der der der der der you said okay, future, then you went back there and you found that it was a present tense in English, right, but you needed a future in French because the whole thing is future.
[1401] Well that's future, but it's a different tense again.
[1402] Okay technically it's a future of the auxiliary of the past participle ... future of the auxiliary of the past participle [...] don't know why I bother.
[1403] So is it is the same? the answer is yes and no.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [1404] Ooh!

[2166] But it's difficult.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2167] and save it for later.
[2168] ... I know, no but I won't cry in class because somehow
Catriona (PS52C) [2169] But the thing is though d erm [whispering] [...] [] Aldo's always saying that when they see the girls crying at Wellington they feel really guilty.
[2170] I know it sounds like [...] sounds like you'd be [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2171] I know but it'd be different here.
[2172] It'd be totally totally
Catriona (PS52C) [2173] But don't you think though if a gi if they saw her cry they'd think oh my God hang on we'd better stop, this is a bit nasty, they would see I mean whereas
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2174] Well they do
Catriona (PS52C) [2175] whereas her just sitting back and taking it, they think oh she can take it, you know it's funny isn't it?
[2176] They just think oh
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2177] They'll try it again.
Catriona (PS52C) [2178] she's swallowing it.
[2179] Yeah.
[2180] I'm sure that if they saw you cry, I swear to God if they saw you crying things would be slightly different.
[2181] They're not completely heartless.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2182] Well what I tried last weekend, not quite crying but I did a sort of moody sort of thing, I di I was really quiet and I just ignored everyone and I was like really like ... you know ... didn't say a word.

Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2201] But did you realize that dare was for you?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2202] [laugh] Ha?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2203] That was the dare that started off everything else.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2204] Why?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2205] Because the dare was
Catriona (PS52C) [2206] If he could do it properly, if he, if he, if,
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2207] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [2208] they bet that if Charlie can, if Charlie ran all the way up the erm
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2209] It wasn't Charlie, Pete did it.
Catriona (PS52C) [2210] no they bet that if Charlie ran all the way up his tables
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2211] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2212] [...] split in the middle or something.
Catriona (PS52C) [2213] Pete, Pete would yeah Pete would have to get off with you and Charlie did it.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2214] Charlie didn't.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2215] No but he obviously did it when you weren't there cos that was the bet.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2216] That was the whole thing.
[2217] That was the whole thing [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2218] No
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2219] Yes it was.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2220] No Pete ran all the tables.

Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2222] Yeah but then Charlie said no you're not doing it properly ... and if you can do it
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2223] No that's absolutely crap because
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2224] It's not crap Charlotte that's what happened.

Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2229] Go on say, say what happened then.
[2230] Pete ran across the tables ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2231] Well you must have left but then the bet was if Charlie could do it and do something like splits in the middle or something, can't remember what it was, then I w
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2232] Pete Pete would have to go out with you.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2233] Pete would get off with you. ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2234] Probably me cos er I think I was a bit provoking last night, [laughing] what I was wearing [] .
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2235] No so Charlie did it,
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2236] [...] don't worry.

Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2249] but, no I went out, no what Pete did is he ran across, ran out the door and then everyone left and that was it, I thought.
[2250] Obviously not, maybe they came back.
Catriona (PS52C) [2251] No.
[2252] Well I don't know Charlotte but the bet was definitely about [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2253] But why me?
[2254] It's probably cos I walked in and they called me over, I mean I
Catriona (PS52C) [2255] Why you?
[2256] Because you're so gullible, I don't know why you.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2257] No I was the only girl there, I was the only girl there.

Catriona (PS52C) [2297] You are all there, they're just complete sods.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2298] Well I'm all there but they're even more there.
Catriona (PS52C) [2299] They're out for a laugh, I mean Charlie won't even tell me who he fancies because ... erm he says, you know, he said to me, you know, and in, in, in, and in his exact words he said you've got to be really stupid to tell ... anyone anything in this place and I said yeah but I'm not a proper Haileyburian I've just come in, you know ... he goes yeah but you're gonna get that way

[2306] Well I thought I'd got over it this week and Foxy and you were really nice to me and everyone was, you know?
[2307] ... But then I just, oh shit ... and yeah I wish you were at the shack with me last night ... it would have sorted them out.
Catriona (PS52C) [2308] It wouldn't have sorted them out it would, I mean how can I stop them?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2309] No but you would've said to me to, you know ... I had no one there Catriona, I was the only girl in the shack ... I was the only girl there ... and it was just so
Catriona (PS52C) [2310] Well I can understand it being hard but I ... equally but you
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2311] I know
Catriona (PS52C) [2312] need your wits about you in this place.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2313] I know well I haven't got much commonsense [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [2314] Oh for Go that's no excuse!
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2315] Well why did I do it then?
[2316] I don't know why I did it.
Catriona (PS52C) [2317] I don't know why you did it either but it
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2318] I don't know.
[2319] ... I can't work it out.
Catriona (PS52C) [2320] I know, I know, I know I shouldn't be angry cos it's not, you know, obviously you're not gonna think every time someone says they fancy you you're not gonna think oh God he's lying, there's no reason, you shouldn't ever think that I mean what they're doing now is just making you into a paranoid wreck.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2321] Well no before that, I mean I'd been told before all this Pete business yesterday night, I was told Elliot fancied me and that was true ... you know?
[2322] ... And I knew it was true but I didn't want it.
[2323] ... I'm not being mean but he's a
Catriona (PS52C) [2324] About Elliot?
[2325] No it's not mean it's
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2326] Yeah.
[2327] Well no I just didn't want to ... that was that.
[2328] But there's no ne oh well they just wanted some fun, I know they did but there was no need to.
Catriona (PS52C) [2329] Yeah Charlotte you always, I hate the way you always relent and you always say oh well, you know, I shouldn't be angry with them cos they just wanted some fun and ... you know, never mind eh, sort of thing [...] and you know, you suc yeah but why do you succumb
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2330] Well what can I do?
[2331] I don't know what I can do.
Catriona (PS52C) [2332] well you know ... I know that some people do but don't back down afterwards and then say oh well never mind it was my fault cos it's not your fault.
[2333] No one has any right to treat you like that.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2334] But you just said it was, I should have my wits about me and be one ahead of them.
Catriona (PS52C) [2335] Yeah but in the same way ... in exactly the same respect
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [2336] yeah in the same respect you shouldn't have to think that every time someone says they fancy you, you shouldn't have to think, you know, that it's a joke at all.
[2337] ... That's not right.
[2338] But ... you know, here, in this place, in Haileybury alone, when you get out of here fine cos no one 's gonna know that you have this ... name, you know, for being a joke ... erm when you get out of here it'll be completely different but here you should keep your wits about you, in here you should think well hang on ... I don't know, just be more careful.
[2339] I don't know what to say.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2340] I don't know what to do. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [2341] Don't do anything.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2342] Yeah well Lucy thinks I ought to be horrible to them but ... well
Catriona (PS52C) [2343] No you don't have to be horrible you just have to go up and say ... make the point that
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2344] Oh God [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [2345] you're not gonna be made a fool of.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2346] But I can't make that point cos it just gets enemies and ... it just won't do, it won't do any good.
Catriona (PS52C) [2347] Well so you're just gonna carry on being nice and get loads of friends [...] take the piss out of you.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2348] I [...] , I mean I went like this into dinner okay, and I suppose everyone was like what's she doing in a skirt or whatever cos they were all like looking and then like half way when I was eating I could feel them all staring at me and laughing and Jim and that lot were laughing and ... I could see Charlie
Catriona (PS52C) [2349] Can I have a cig?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2350] Mm?
Catriona (PS52C) [2351] Can I have a cig?
[2352] You don't mind?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2353] I could see ... I could see Li er Charlie and Pete looking at me from the other side of the room, Charlie smiled and I just did I just went ... like that, you know? ...
Catriona (PS52C) [2354] I won't open another one, should I?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2355] And when he passed me, I think Charlie feels guilty cos when he passed me he said alright [...] I just didn't say anything.
[2356] I erm I'll make, I can easily make Charlie feel guilty cos he, I mean he's a bit of a try-hard, you know, he thinks he's a lad but ... I mean underneath I think he does feel something sometimes. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [2357] I don't know, I don't know what to say.
[2358] ... I mean it's awful that they're doing this, you know I can't believe they're carrying on. ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2359] Yeah.
[2360] ... Yeah but then I suppose ... they're just immature little boys aren't they?
[2361] Just making excuses for them.
Catriona (PS52C) [2362] Well yeah but they don't have to like pull you through it as well.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2363] Exa ... yeah but they are though aren't they?
[2364] Er I'm just so easy to ... you know
Catriona (PS52C) [2365] That's why they picked you, if I was like ... if I was like you they would have done it to me.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2366] Well the good thing about you is you're going out with someone here, that helps a lot.
[2367] ... No but ...
Catriona (PS52C) [2368] Did Susan, Susan told me something about it, what did Susan say to you?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2369] Sue thought ... that Pete was totally fucked off his head ... and really out of it.
[2370] That's absolute crap, he was so he was as sober as the day comes I can tell you ... and it was just a joke. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [2371] Well maybe she was doing it to get Pete off the hook then.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2372] Well that made me feel worse actually.
Catriona (PS52C) [2373] What? ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2374] From my point of view, if someone was totally pissed and just got off with you and really embarrassed about it ... and thought, you know, oh my God how could I go for her ... I think that's, do you think that's worse than them saying, than it being a bit of a joke?
[2375] I don't
Catriona (PS52C) [2376] No.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2377] know which one's the worst. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [2378] When you're pissed you just go with whatever comes, you know?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2379] I wasn't pissed.
Catriona (PS52C) [2380] Yeah I know but if they were saying that he was, I don't think he was.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2381] He wasn't pissed.
[2382] ... And that's another thing, I was told that Pete was pissed and Sue seemed to think he got off with me because he was totally out of it, Pete was.
[2383] You can tell if [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2384] Yeah.
[2385] You can tell.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2386] Yeah but she was quite friendly with Pete for some reason.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2387] Can I borrow your spoon Lucy?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2388] Well he's so bloody clever.
[2389] You know?
Catriona (PS52C) [2390] Pete?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2391] Yeah, no, yeah well you know, really manipulative, you know, he could just ... get me round his finger I suppose.
[2392] ... I don't know why I get too flattered you know.
Catriona (PS52C) [2393] Well what did he say?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2394] I mean he didn't say anything in particular, just the fact that, you know, we were just like walking along and just chatting away you know and he was being really nice and, you know, it was just ... fine.
Catriona (PS52C) [2395] [laughing] You know [] but what did he say?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2396] No nothing in particular, just a normal conversation. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [2397] But was he a real smooth talker?
[2398] Was he a real charmer? ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2399] Not amazingly but just ... like he usually is really.
Catriona (PS52C) [2400] Well how is he usu oh I see, yeah
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2401] You know
Catriona (PS52C) [2402] he agrees with everything you say.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2403] Yeah ... I suppose, yeah he does actually doesn't he?
Catriona (PS52C) [laugh]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2404] I haven't noticed that.
Catriona (PS52C) [2405] [laughing] How observant Charlotte [] . ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2406] Really?
[2407] Well I've never thought of it that way.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2408] I've never noticed that.
Catriona (PS52C) [2409] You've never noticed it?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2410] Yeah you're right!
[2411] Actually thinking about it, he does!
Catriona (PS52C) [2412] He does he agrees w I said to him ... I'd, I'd used some hair thickening shampoo, yeah?
[2413] Pete has never touched my hair in my life and there was some downstairs in that bathroom downstairs and I thought hey that looks a bit of fun, I'll have a go at that and erm ... and I was outside and I took my hair down, I'd just washed it and I said oh look, you know, I used this hair thickening shampoo do you think it looks thicker, as a joke, and he goes yeah it does actually, yeah it really does.
[2414] I said Pete what are you talking about, you don't know what my hair looks like, you know, thick or thin, it didn't er well it hadn't made any difference at all basically, and he was agreeing, and everything you say he agrees.
[2415] I didn't notice it until
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2416] That's like me. [laugh]
Catriona (PS52C) [2417] someone pointed it out to me.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2418] Ah now you think about it, I mean there was this question in our maths test and I was chatting to him in the dinner queue about it and I was going yeah it was this and he goes oh you're probably right and he was agreeing with me and I found out later that I was wrong but he still agreed with me.
[2419] [laugh] Oh God.
[2420] ... I don't know how you could do that though.
[2421] I just couldn't go and get off with someone just for a joke, I couldn't do it.
Catriona (PS52C) [2422] Bet you could.
[2423] ... If your friends were daring you to.
[2424] ... If we dared you to, but I mean it's qui it's qui
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2425] I wouldn't.
[2426] I don't think [...] it dep if I fancied them underneath I would.
Catriona (PS52C) [2427] Yeah I mean I don't know if I, I don't, I'm not saying I could I'm just saying I bet if you had all that pressure then you would think of it differently.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2428] Especially as Pete, I mean he's a bit of a sort of ... one of them.
Catriona (PS52C) [2429] No I think, I reckon that if you knew that the bloke was an easy pull, they wouldn't do it if they, if they knew they couldn't get the girl ... cos otherwise it would be embarrassing for them, but if they knew that she was an easy pull they'd do it for a joke.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2430] But apparently they know that I'm really forward which is absolute, actually not very true cos ... Ed said that I was quite forward and he, I was only forward with him because the person I got off with just before him was bloody forward and it made me a bit forward but I calmed down after that, you know?
[2431] Ed was just like a one off and I'm not forward any more at all and, you know, everyone thinks I am [...] you know and Pete thought right I'm in for a good time here, you know, I can probably get her ... you know, and so Charlie would have to carry out his part.
[2432] ... [...] about this?
Catriona (PS52C) [2433] Who?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2434] Does George know about it?
Catriona (PS52C) [2435] Georgie ?
[2436] ... Don't think so.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2437] She'd be hard to get. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2438] No I think she wouldn't fall for anything.
[2439] ... Not because she purposely wants to be but because she just ... don't think she'd [...] to done it, do you?
[2440] Bit of a
Catriona (PS52C) [2441] I don't know.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2442] smooth talker though isn't he? ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2443] But he fancied George for about two days ... like for two
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2444] Did he?
[2445] ... What, so he's not very forward or er I think Charlie's worried that ... erm, you know, doesn't wanna crash and burn.
[2446] There's really loads of [...] in France, is this like this in every school or just here? ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2447] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2448] It's really funny though this is all a new experience for me, I've never really, you know ... it's quite sort of funny analyzing it all don't you think? [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [2449] Well yeah if you're looking on to it but not if you're actually in it.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2450] Now I'm looking on to it thinking, you know, [...] but they're so, do you think, the upper sixth aren't like that at all though are they?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2451] Yes they are, they're worse.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2452] [...] there's a real difference. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [2453] There's a difference in the way that the blokes ... treat the girls and talk to them and stuff, there's a very big difference.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2454] [...] ... [...] made a fool of myself [...] ... well I said to him and then er they're not very gentlemanly [laughing] like and Foxy was going ha there's no such thing at Haileybury [laugh] another stupid comment from me.
[2455] ... Well, do you think that was stupid [] ? [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [2456] [...] made me laugh cos ... we'd gone up to house tonight, he said he was making a real effort to be good and to [...] and he, when he got up to house today he goes ... I was doing a really gentlemanly thing and saying oh thank you for a really nice evening, I started laughing ... well what was I supposed to?
[2457] He made it sound like we've been our for a, you know, a romantic candle lit dinner and, you know, and we'd just been down to his study for God's sake!
[2458] And that was wrong, I shouldn't have laughed.
[2459] ... Sorry.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2460] Yeah but like, I dunno, I can imagine like people like Rob and everyone taking the piss out of people and ...
Catriona (PS52C) [2461] [...] do it a different way. ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2462] What do you mean? ...
Catriona (PS52C) [2463] I don't know, he's just got a different approach about it, don't know ... much better.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [2464] What?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2465] They're better?
Catriona (PS52C) [2466] Well not necessarily better, they're just more mature about it.
[2467] ... I'm sure when they're all sitting around in their studies they're a complete, they're all the same but
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2468] But I suppose they're all boys really, I mean ... are all boys like this really? ...
Catriona (PS52C) [2469] No they're not all like that.
[2470] ... I suppose, I don't know, if they're all together then
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2471] But they're like you know, I suppose ... everyone goes through, I bet my dad was like that when he was younger a bit you know, all have a laugh and a joke and
Catriona (PS52C) [2472] At someone else's expense, yeah.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2473] and then they grow up later, you know, and then become really responsible.
Catriona (PS52C) [2474] Oh they ne you never grow up Charlotte, haven't you seen that?
[2475] Haven't you noticed? ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2476] What?
Catriona (PS52C) [2477] [belch] Excuse me.
[2478] You never ... never grow up.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2479] What, adults?
Catriona (PS52C) [2480] They're just ch they're just children inside big bodies, old bodies.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2481] What are you talking men or everyone?

[2487] What you are now is how the
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2488] Yeah but what, what am I then?
[2489] Am I really really mature or something?
Catriona (PS52C) [2490] No.

Catriona (PS52C) [2620] Oh.
Jess (PS52F) [2621] but it wasn't like a long thing but like ... I, the time that I spent with him was like quite a long time, like the evening, whatever, so he'd get, and like it just used to be constant pauses, it used to be terrible and so we used to get off with each other like you pause for, for what
Catriona (PS52C) [2622] And you, did you like did you ... were you attracted to him then?

Catriona (PS52C) [2912] Hamp [] I don't, he didn't he sent it to home.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2913] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [2914] [reading] you might have heard of it and you might not.
[2915] I suppose looking back on what I said at the time it was true and I did really love you and I still do ... but [reading+laughing] now it's not sexual [reading] or romantic, it wasn't sexual then because my mind was too pure and partly because you were such a huge chunk of my life, one seventh, and I think I always will [] don't know what that's su oh it's love you I suppose ... [reading] for you it must have been such a small thing and at fifteen stroke sixteen you can probably only just remember me [] I was fourteen actually [reading] I was the middle son who wasn't properly blond unlike the brothers and hung around near you far too much.
[2916] It seems ironic that ... that for me it seemed []
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2917] How old is he, fourteen?
Catriona (PS52C) [2918] [laughing] Yeah [] .
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [2919] Bloody good.
Catriona (PS52C) [2920] It is isn't it? [reading] it seems ironic that for me it seemed such a big thing, in case you still need it clear I was William's nephew.
[2921] I didn't get on very well with Harriet and I wasn't either of the Williams it's Tim [...] Annie or either of the Harriets, no shit.
[2922] P T O I suppose it's unlikely that I'll ever see you again but we might see each other at William's or something and if you ever need to speak to me for some reason you can call me at school
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [laugh]
Catriona (PS52C) [2923] or at home [] [laughing] and he's put both his numbers [] [reading] unlikely or not I hope I do see you soon again.

Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3144] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3145] They're trying to blame it on the parents but you don't get a set of
Catriona (PS52C) [3146] Bum!
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3147] you know, rules for bringing up your child.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3148] I don't know, it's not the parents' fault.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3149] Well I don't know anything about it but I think you can't be responsible for what your children do.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3150] No but some people think it is.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3151] Night.
Catriona (PS52C) [3152] Night.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3153] Oh.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3154] Cos you don't actually have that much [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3155] So therefore while he's at school
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3156] No it's like guidance though
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3157] so they're responsible for what you're doing, okay [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3158] if the school didn't say don't smoke a lot more people would.
Catriona (PS52C) [3159] What?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3160] They might.
Catriona (PS52C) [3161] If the school didn't say don't smoke?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3162] The c the school didn't, you know, there wasn't a rule saying don't smoke and then you get busted and all that
Catriona (PS52C) [3163] Well exactly, that's the whole point!
[3164] If you're allowed to s that's the, that's the point
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3165] Yeah I know but if everyone went out ... if you're allowed to
Catriona (PS52C) [3166] that's the point!
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3167] yeah I know if you're allowed to then everyone, more people do it.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3168] No.
Catriona (PS52C) [3169] Bollocks.
[3170] People might do it at first, there might be like an epidemic of wow it's so cool we can smoke at school
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3171] But then after a while they'll think [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3172] but it would just wear off they'd think well you know it's not such a big thing now, I mean it's not, I mean part of the fun is the risk for a lot of people.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3173] Yeah I go on holiday
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3174] Mm.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3175] and there is so many people smoking where, in the pubs that I go to and I don't have it cos I think it looks disgusting ... I come here and because we go around in like threes and it's, you know, [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3176] Sociable isn't it?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3177] and, well no it's not sociable but because you come out and it, it gets you away from here because you've got so many things on during the day you want some time to yourself ... and because you, we've found us a place that we won't get busted and we know we won't we go in and have it but I can guarantee that if we were, like ... walking into this room, if it was full of smoke it would put me off straight away.
[3178] ... So when I pe when I sit, when I think oh right I'll have a piss up session this Saturday and I see one of my friends getting absolutely slaughtered it puts me off straight away because I think oh stupid, what, what a waste.
[3179] Okay you've gotta have certain rules
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3180] Yeah but it might not work you see that's a big risk for a school to take [cough] and anyway the parents would be against it.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3181] That's why [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3182] My dad thinks the same.
Catriona (PS52C) [3183] What?
[3184] ... He thinks what?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3185] About the smo about the smoking.
Catriona (PS52C) [3186] It should be made legal?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3187] No.
Catriona (PS52C) [3188] It shouldn't be made legal?
[3189] He thinks the same as you, it should be banned and strictly sort of I don't.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3190] No no my dad thinks, he said ... he, he just said, he said cos when he was at Wellington he said there was this one boy and he used to go out under a bush or something and smoke and smoke and smoke all the time and stuff and he knew and everyone knew you see and he said that's fine, you know, you can go and do things like that as long as you don't get caught but like ... doing things like that in house and, and it's like you're ... the ideal for the removes and the younger people in the school, it's like they see all the upper, lower and upper sixth smoking and screwing and they think God we want to go, we want to go and try it out, you know, cos that's [...] sheep
Catriona (PS52C) [3191] But that's ridic no that's, but Charlotte wh when you're eleven years old you don't look at someone else and, and
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3192] yeah well they are sheep, they're vulnerable, they're little boys [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3193] Oh that that is such crap!
[3194] Just because they're the youngest year in the school doesn't mean they're gonna go round and, you know erm and copy what oth no that's, no I'm sorry Charlotte
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3195] But they are vulnerable though, they're [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3196] but when I was eleven years old I didn't look at the sixth form and do jus just because they were doing something I wanted to do it, I might have admired them but if they were smoking that wouldn't make me want to smoke.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3197] No but they are vulnerable though, they
Catriona (PS52C) [3198] No but not they're not, that's just
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3199] They are.
Catriona (PS52C) [3200] They're not!
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3201] Oh I think they are.
[3202] I was always too good so I don't really [...] ...
Catriona (PS52C) [3203] [...] buggered up just t keeps stopping and starting, oh!
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3204] Is it on again?
Catriona (PS52C) [3205] Yeah.
[3206] ... No I'm sorry I don't agree with you there.
[3207] [sniff] ... I hate this thing about you know you're making a tt er er you're setting an example for the rest of the school, you know.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3208] But don't you think that ...
Catriona (PS52C) [3209] What?
[3210] Do I think that we're setting, we are setting, us personally are setting an example for all the little people?
[3211] No.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3212] Not personally, the, the whole
Catriona (PS52C) [3213] Not at all.
[3214] I don't think, no I don't think they're even con I don't think they're even concerned with what we're doing, I don't think they even notice, they're in their own little worlds.
[3215] ... I don't live my life looking up to other people, setting my life on the example of others, yeah fair enough
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3216] Well no you don't, yeah but like in house, like, like
Catriona (PS52C) [3217] Yeah so why should they?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3218] just in Batham all those removes having to look out for the sixth form smoking
Catriona (PS52C) [3219] Yeah but that's n
Lucy (PS52G) [3220] [...] that's silly.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3221] they know that goes on yeah it is silly
Lucy (PS52G) [3222] But if they try it and they like it then it's their life, they can do what they want. ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3223] I know but they, they think ... is this what people do?
[3224] I don't think it does make [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [3225] No they don't. [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3226] They do, they think people did it to me so I'm gonna do it to them ... they just do it as a way of getting back, it's not is this what people do, they know it's not right ... they just do it because they think well we had to sit there for hours on look out so they can too.
[3227] It's sod's law.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3228] Yeah they've gotta carry on and
Lucy (PS52G) [3229] This is such a sexist comment but boys are taught about all of this stuff before we are ... they've got a lo lot more idea about drugs and all that lot than most girls are.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3230] But the thing I think, no but like with drugs, say you had a talk on it ... [...] class of like removes
Lucy (PS52G) [3231] It wouldn't make any difference.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3232] and you had a talk on drugs, you know, about things, I think it makes people curious. ...
Lucy (PS52G) [3233] So what do you want them to do, not show videos at all
Catriona (PS52C) [3234] What so you want to
Lucy (PS52G) [3235] and let them find out the hard way?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3236] That's a true statement because I was told that by [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3237] That, that is, that's another kind of Victorian idea you've got there
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3238] No no if you start lecturing
Catriona (PS52C) [3239] you know don't mention
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3240] people and telling them all these things about things they don't really know much about like drugs they take in what [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3241] So you leave them naive and stupid and then something could happen and they
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3242] No but then, no but they're not saying when you get, when you
Lucy (PS52G) [3243] But then they become curious and try it.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3244] when you get high
Catriona (PS52C) [3245] They can't cure it cos they just haven't seen a [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [3246] No, curious
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3247] they're not saying when you get high
Lucy (PS52G) [3248] about what drugs do to them so they go and try it.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3249] you have a really amazing time they're saying when you get high this happens then it can usually result in this ... [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [3250] I know but they'll think no but the bit that this happens, you know like ... they do get high because I mean [...] take drugs [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [3251] No a lot, a lot of things to do with smoking, drugs and alcohol
Lucy (PS52G) [laugh]
Lucy (PS52G) [3252] is to do with in your friends and, and who, who you go around with, it's got nothing to do with how much you're taught about it I don't think.
[3253] ... And it's got to do with the individual as well.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3254] Peer pressure it's called.
Lucy (PS52G) [3255] What?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3256] Peer pressure, people do it cos it's sociable or something don't they?
Lucy (PS52G) [3257] No.
Catriona (PS52C) [3258] No some people do.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3259] Like at a party some people at a party smoke [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3260] Yeah [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3261] th they just smoke, smoke socially.
[3262] [cough] Don't you think Luce?
Lucy (PS52G) [3263] Yeah but you find most of them don't inhale anyway so it's not doing any damage.
[3264] Passive smoking's just as bad.
[3265] So what do you want, you know?
[3266] Party and then ... no one goes into the bit where everyone's smoking cos otherwise they'll die.
Catriona (PS52C) [3267] Yeah no but I mean passive smoking is just ... that's, that's, that's the way that self erm s smoking is so selfish because you can't get away, you know, whether you're not smoking or not you're still ... getting the worst from it. ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3268] I'm so bunged up.
[3269] No but I mean er it's,n not telling people ... I think pe I, you know, I think that's the worst thing to do.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3270] No no they should be aware of it.
Catriona (PS52C) [3271] Well that's, that's your idea of, your idea though i is, you know, to
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3272] They should be aware but they shouldn't be like ... I
Catriona (PS52C) [3273] They shouldn't be informed and I think that's wrong.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3274] No no no they should be informed, they should know about everything but I don't think they, they should
Lucy (PS52G) [3275] [...] but you can't have [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3276] see everyone else doing it and think ... oh well maybe we're meant to do it. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [3277] But Charlotte that's stupid.
Lucy (PS52G) [3278] [...] cos you've got an opinion and you're gonna stick to it but everyone is totally different, everyone's got a totally different view on things.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3279] Yeah but sometimes they don't because
Catriona (PS52C) [3280] No but Charlotte that's ridiculous you don't look, tell me do you look at some people ... and I do have you ever looked at any people, saw them doing something and think oh that's probably what, well that's what should be done?
[3281] I mean you never look at someone and say, I mean apart from your parents
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3282] No because that's me cos I'm quite [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3283] apart from your parents and you think they're wonderful, you know, they know everything don't they?
[3284] You get really annoyed when they don't know everything and they do and they can't answer your questions, apart from your parents I don't think there's one person, well me anyway, there's not one person I've looked at and thought oh well that's what should be done.
[3285] You know I'll watch them and think maybe I'd like to do that but not, not, you know, judging, not sort of using them as a kind of measure stick ... you know to judge everybody by.
[3286] That's ridiculous.
Lucy (PS52G) [3287] My dad was once testing me on my biology and we came up to these films and the subject of drugs and I said just, you know, just as a joke and I thought he would just laugh it off, I said have you done any?
[3288] And he said yes I've once done L S D and he said if you get the chance do it because you can't go through life, you know ... and not do it, you know, it's something that you will do, you'll find that all your friends will when you get older ... you know [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [3289] just don't get addicted.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3290] That's the thing
Lucy (PS52G) [3291] And now he's said that to me I'm not going to. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [3292] Yeah cos he's let you, yeah.
Lucy (PS52G) [3293] Co because he's let me I'm not going to do it because I'm not really gonna get a thrill out of it.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3294] That's probably like me.
[3295] I'm allow
Catriona (PS52C) [3296] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3297] I'm allowed to do anything, my mum will let me drink, smoke, take drugs, anything really, well ... well she probably wouldn't actually but, you know she never tells me off, she's never lectured me about anything, she's never given me a talk on [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3298] Yeah but Charlotte she probably doesn't even think you know.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3299] I know, well no she does know, she said to me in the car once you think I don't know anything but [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [3300] No but my dad was like saying
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3301] but, but I don't because [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3302] my dad was saying, you know it's, it's ... when I did it it was really good and everything, you know, as long as you don't get addicted it's okay but try because you're going to when you get older, [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3303] I wouldn't want to try smoking just in case I liked it ... cos I wouldn't want to.
Lucy (PS52G) [3304] Fine that's, that's [...] then ... but now my dad's given me permission to do that I'm not going to.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3305] [...] ... It's quite true that [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [3306] Plus the fact that one of my friends thought it was a really funny idea if she stuck half a [...] in one of my drinks and I almost died so ... that's beside the point.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3307] She did?
Lucy (PS52G) [3308] Yeah.
[3309] She thought it was really funny.
[3310] ... [laughing] It lasted twelve hours [] and that was the worst twelve hours in my life [...] .
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3311] Did you go high or low? ...
Lucy (PS52G) [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3312] But no well sometimes it has a reverse effect on people.
Lucy (PS52G) [3313] You know everyone was walking like [...] my hair I didn't know where I was ... everything that people said [cough] would like just echo in my head.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3314] Where were you?
Lucy (PS52G) [3315] I was in this club up in London and she just thought it'd be really funny.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3316] Did you take alcohol [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3317] That's so awful she could've killed you.
Lucy (PS52G) [3318] What?
Catriona (PS52C) [3319] She could've killed you.
Lucy (PS52G) [3320] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3321] Did you take alcohol with it though?
Catriona (PS52C) [3322] Do you still know this girl?
Lucy (PS52G) [3323] No. ... [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3324] What, can you die on half of one?
Catriona (PS52C) [3325] Yeah.
[3326] Depends on what's in it.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3327] Ooh [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3328] Ecstasy the d
Lucy (PS52G) [3329] It depends what you're body's like, you can die of anything.
Catriona (PS52C) [3330] And it also
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3331] and it also depends what's in Ecstasy cos people put all sorts of shit into Ecstasy nowadays, you know, they just, you know there's like R Rataseed and y you know, stuff that you put on the lawn and, you know cos it, it's cheap isn't it?
[3332] They can make a fortune, they can sell these tablets and
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3333] And sell dud things.
Catriona (PS52C) [3334] yeah and they can sell duds and they're, you know, they're not missing out, they'll be making money and it can kill you, and it can kill you even if, you know, you can take the real Ecstasy and it can ... but supposedly what's good about Ecstasy is that it's a designer drug and it gets you on a really good high and [sniff] you know you ... dance a lot and you
Lucy (PS52G) [3335] Feel crap.
Catriona (PS52C) [3336] you sweat a lot and you're supposedly meant to feel good for so long and then it's meant to wear off and there's meant to be no hangover effects or nothing and that's why it's a designer drug and that's why it ... you know, it's supposed to be so good.
[3337] ... But because people mi mess about so much it kills.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3338] [...] really good?
[3339] ... Why what do you think ... like Jim taking drugs in school?
Catriona (PS52C) [3340] What do I think?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3341] Not but do you think like something like that, what do you think the school's responsibility is? ...
Lucy (PS52G) [3342] Exactly what they've done, they saw him and they suspended him.
Catriona (PS52C) [3343] Yeah what c what more can they do? ...
Lucy (PS52G) [3344] They can't put raiders on, radars on you, they just keep track of what you're doing every day
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3345] No
Lucy (PS52G) [3346] and do you think that's enough?
Catriona (PS52C) [3347] To suspend someone?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3348] Yeah.
Lucy (PS52G) [3349] Mm.
Catriona (PS52C) [3350] Yeah well if he gets caught again he'll be expelled ... and if he's dealing, any dealers cau caught here they'll be expelled in instantly cos they're actually causing harm to other people. ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3351] That's the other thing though, you should have your own mind, so what if you're a dealer?
Catriona (PS52C) [3352] You should what?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3353] [cough] In your opinion if you're offered something like that you should have your own mind and if you want to take it that's your problem.
Lucy (PS52G) [3354] Yeah.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3355] Why is that so bad for children?
Catriona (PS52C) [3356] Why is it so bad?
Lucy (PS52G) [3357] It's not bad, we're saying that the rules here are that if you're caught dealing you're gonna be suspended but
Catriona (PS52C) [3358] No you're expelled.
Lucy (PS52G) [3359] I mean you're expelled.
Catriona (PS52C) [3360] Yeah.
[3361] Because there you're, therefore you're causing not only harm to yourself
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3362] You're dealing
Catriona (PS52C) [3363] supposedly but you're, you're er er could be harming, yeah
Lucy (PS52G) [3364] You are an influence on other people.
Catriona (PS52C) [3365] and harming other people.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3366] Influencing you see, there's that word again, you said there is no influence. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [laugh]
Lucy (PS52G) [3367] It's totally different when you're taking drugs and when you're dealing them. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [3368] Yeah if you're taking it you just want a laugh and you know you're not affecting anyone else but if you're dealing you're pressing other people to buy it.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3369] There's that other thing, pressing you see, you said that ... no you can't infl you know it doesn't matter that you influence people.
Catriona (PS52C) [3370] No ... [sigh]
Lucy (PS52G) [3371] There's no set rule about this though.
Catriona (PS52C) [sigh] ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3372] I know it's a different subject like this is drugs and the other thing is smoking but like it's still the same if people see you do it people take things off you. [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [3373] Do you seriously think that if you went to a school and it was like, you know, all cosy, you know, you had dealers and [...] weren't allowed to smoke, you weren't allowed to drink and you weren't allowed to take drugs do you seriously think anyone would go there? [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3374] No they wouldn't and they'd all break the rules and it would be biggest
Lucy (PS52G) [3375] and it'd be worse.
Catriona (PS52C) [3376] cock up in, you know ... in Britain and it would just be the laughing stock, I mean you can't do that, you can't shelter everybody
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3377] I know you can't, I know you can't but I think
Catriona (PS52C) [3378] and pretend, and just block things out and pretend they're not there.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3379] I think people can do as they please and they can make up their own minds but I just don't think that all, everyone else should be like advertising the fact
Lucy (PS52G) [3380] But it's not as if , you can't do much more though you know?
[3381] They s they seriously can't do much more than if they catch you they suspend you ... there's not a lot more that they can do. ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3382] What suspend [...] [loud rattling noise so unable to hear]
Catriona (PS52C) [3383] Well they can finally expel you but it's a vicious circle, I mean it goes on and on and on, if they expel one person, there's always gonna be ten more.
[3384] What?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3385] If they expel [...] anyone else though isn't it?
[3386] If someone's expelled for drugs you know don't you think everyone else would think hey, you know?
Lucy (PS52G) [3387] Yeah.
Catriona (PS52C) [3388] But there have been people expelled for drugs.
Lucy (PS52G) [3389] It still hasn't stopped it.
[3390] If so if someone wants to
Catriona (PS52C) [3391] It hasn't stopped it at all.
Lucy (PS52G) [3392] [...] for a long time
Catriona (PS52C) [3393] Huge there's been huge drug busting over the last two years.
[3394] Huge amounts of people have gone, I mean Andy , him being expelled, that was just an excuse
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3395] Oh yeah [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3396] he was a drug wasn't he a dealer?
[3397] Erm and that was just an excu h him being expelled for driving someone into town was simply an excuse because he'd been caught so many other times.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3398] I know it was the last straw of many.
Catriona (PS52C) [3399] Yeah.
[3400] ... But he's gone and people know why, really why ... and erm that's not stopping anyone.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3401] Don't you think it makes any impact?
Catriona (PS52C) [3402] What?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3403] Don't you think it ma you don't [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [3404] No because if you're addicted nothing's gonna stop you.
Catriona (PS52C) [3405] Erm not necessarily addicted though, they just like it ... and they just wait until they get caught then they suffer the consequences themselves.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3406] I can't see it though because you see I don't do anything like this at all
Catriona (PS52C) [3407] Nor do I. ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3408] so I find it hard to see why people are so desperate at school to do all these things.
Lucy (PS52G) [3409] knows that loads and loads of people go out there and smoke by the [...] you know
Catriona (PS52C) [3410] Yeah.
Lucy (PS52G) [3411] it's so obvious, you see all the fag packets
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3412] Yeah.
Lucy (PS52G) [3413] he walks past there, if he really wanted to bust us that bad he'd probably just come up and say right [...] [bag rattling too much to hear properly]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [...]
Lucy (PS52G) [3414] what he does he, he [...] if he's walking his dog and he sees you and he passes you he's got to bust you.
Catriona (PS52C) [3415] [...] ?
Lucy (PS52G) [3416] I don't know.
[3417] I'm gonna find some money and ring.
Catriona (PS52C) [3418] What?
Lucy (PS52G) [3419] I'm just going to go and find some money and ring.
[3420] ... Does it take little fives?
Catriona (PS52C) [3421] No. ...
Lucy (PS52G) [3422] Ooh.
Catriona (PS52C) [3423] Do it by card.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3424] I've got ten P.
Lucy (PS52G) [3425] I've got twenty, it's just swallowed twenty of my P ... I put it in before she answered [...] [clears throat]
Catriona (PS52C) [3426] Oh how annoying. ...
Lucy (PS52G) [cough] ...
Catriona (PS52C) [3427] Bye.
Lucy (PS52G) [3428] Bye.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3429] Bye.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3430] Bye.
[3431] How's your score doing?
[3432] ... Not very well? ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3433] Okay I'll [...] ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3434] It's just like, no two girls got expelled from my last school for drugs but I think they actually ... one of them gave it to the other one ... but they were both expelled. ...
Catriona (PS52C) [3435] Do you believe in ghosts? ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3436] I don't really know cos I haven't really experienced anything [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3437] No but I mean
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3438] I've done a ouija board thing.
Catriona (PS52C) [3439] That work? ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3440] We well I wasn't actually [...] I was watching ... but I was quite surprised.
Catriona (PS52C) [3441] Did it work? ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3442] Oh gosh yes it ... I've heard lots of stories as well.
Lucy (PS52G) [3443] I'm never ever gonna do that again.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3444] Did it about five years ago [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3445] A friend of mine did it erm they didn't burn the erm ... the spirit when they'd finished and erm you know you're meant to actually put a piece of paper under and burn it under the light or smash the glass and ... erm for the next six months she couldn't sleep properly and it felt like there, she was like tormented and erm things were like pulling at her, her bedclothes and I swear she's like seeing a psy a psychia psychiatrist and she had to sleep in her parents' room and everything ... really scary.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3446] Yeah I know, I really [...] I just said you should try not to think about it.
Catriona (PS52C) [3447] And she'd like come to school and she's just such a wreck.
[3448] What?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3449] Try not to think about these things.
[3450] ... Er no I don't know [cough] why what do you think?
Catriona (PS52C) [3451] Do I believe in them?
[3452] ... Yeah.
[3453] [cough] Well
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3454] I think there's something there cos some things are er don't have any logic [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3455] I had a ghost in my house in France ... but I've never seen anything but people have.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3456] I'm not sure, you can't ... can't say unless you've experienced things I don't think.
Catriona (PS52C) [3457] Yeah you can.
Lucy (PS52G) [3458] Yes you can.
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3459] Well ... not but the, no I'm saying I, I don't like to make
Lucy (PS52G) [3460] Sometimes it's [...]
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3461] an assumption on no evidence.
[3462] ... Oh I'm going to go to bed [cough] [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3463] I'm quite scared ... erm ... I'd be scar I mean I'd be scared if I saw one but ... be interesting at the same time, I sort of want to and I sort of
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3464] Curious but [...]
Catriona (PS52C) [3465] Yeah very curious. ...
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3466] I haven't really thought about it for ages actually. ... [cough]
Catriona (PS52C) [3467] Are you going home this weekend?
Unknown speaker (KP6PSUNK) [3468] Yeah.
