I'm doing 19 things
Miss Hunt was my music teacher back in year 8. She wasn’t particularly mean or horrible.. just a victim. One of my friends (the leader of this particular group to come) Anna* took a particular disliking to her, and as a young, vulnerable and easily influenced teenager, together with other friends, we ganged up on her!! Each lesson we looked for and found a way to wind her up. One day an opportunity came along. In one of her 6th form classes, she wrote her address on the board. On of the 6th formers was friends with one of the group that “terrorised” her. “Naturally” he turned it over to us. One day, Anna and I went looking for her house. We didnt intend to cause any damage to it and we didnt when we did found it. To this day it is not clear why I did this as it had no particular interest to me.
One evening, me, “Anna” and an additional friend went out. I am not sure if this next part was plan, but I still went along with it. We brought 6 eggs at a local shop that evening. We walked the short trip to her house. Before we entered her road, we each took one egg, zipped up our coats and pulled our hoods over our heads. We walked pretty quickly down her road and each launched an egg at her house. 2 missed but Annas hit her house. We all ran as fast as we could round the corner. There, we picked up another egg and went back 4 more. The additional friend “accidentally” (although wisely) managed to crack he regg on the short walk down the road back to her house. She hung back as me and Anna continued to her house, Once here we launched the other 2 eggs. I can still remember the sound of the eggs cracking against her car. We all ran most of the way home.
The following day at school we were all questioned, but we had an alibi (clever us and helpful friends) but it was obvious they didnt belive us but the headteacher said as we weren’t usually in trouble, the case would just be “dismissed”.
There were later 2 more incidents which i’m pleased to say I wasn’t involved in. Although as a result, 4 others were suspended for a day and 2 of them were forced to change form classes (as this music teacher was also our form teacher…)
That’s an incident I’ll never forget.
