Luton Technical College

A Memory of Luton.

I went to Luton Technical College in 1948. I remember the balcony surrounding the main hall. We had to march all the way to Popes Meadow for our sports afternoon, quite a hike as I remember. I spent 2 years there. My main memory was the fact that you weren't caned there, you had to write lines instead, no fewer than 500 times. I can still remember one of the lines although I am nearly eighty, it goes like this. "Individual self discipline is the basic necessity of civilised society" and you had to get all your spelling right, or do them again.
