Attacked by swans: 1967 -70 memories Diana Comfort

Memories of Keswick:

I did PE main so my memories are of first day doing PE:
Gymnastics followed by hockey followed by theory followed by swimming!
The 2nd years warned me that I would not even be able to climb upstairs - what a joke thought I - but how true their words were! I couldn't and had to go upbackwards on my posterior one stair at a time. Mr Aspland was an absolute orge!
I well remember him saying "Fit? Fit for what ?" !!!


Being dumped in Thetford forest for a day of orienteering - what fun!!
Canoeing down the river and having to camp out for 2 nights. It would have
been fine if the lecturer had thought after her recee, in the winter, that
maybe reeds etc. would have grown by the Summer. We were akin a to David
Attenborough programme, hacking our way through the jungle - and then in a
sudden clearing we came upon nesting swans. They proceeded to attack us!

Happy days....
