I only remember one teacher who appeared to be very similar to me in his outlook on life, being strictly right-wing, and that was a head teacher at one of the schools where I did one of my first teaching practices in the Birmingham area. He was very down to earth and called a spade a spade - I refer, of course, to the gardening/building implement rather than anything else.

D. Read a book instead of playing games on a playstation.
Is this likely to ever come about? I doubt it.
I don't know about 'fast food cafes', though. We never had any, though that was at primary; secondary schools may be different of course. The food doled out where I was was pretty healthy and not bad. I even ate some once.
Needless to say, Playstations should never feature in schools, and should only be used by prisoners! Of course, inept parents will buy them for their little bundles of joy anyway.

I ask because the term is 'harebrained', presumably because hares are a bit silly.
