Only the clever boys got to do 'literature'. (As with Greek at St.Wilfrid's). At Reeds they no longer sought to teach the Latin even we stupids had had to take until then. Biology (dropped), Chemistry and Physics to A level which is another boast as I only managed O level passes.

Became a little less stupid after a year or two at sea but now reverting to type.
