Benches designed by a sadist

We reluctantly went to the Awards ceremony and passing out parade at the Summer School this afternoon to see them all shuffle up to the Head of Somethings for certifcates to certify they had "sucessfully completed their first week of the summer challenge" Archie, the silly boy, was still in his thick fleece when everyone else was in their Gifted and Talented T-shirts. He was sweating and wondering why? Gifted and talented? We had to sit of tortuous benches with a metal ridge around the edge , obvously designed by a sadist! After an hour of this we were crying tears of joy when at last it was all over and we could go home, dragging our ridged buttocks behind us!
