Our Geography teacher was nicknamed James Bond (007) because of his bow ties, whenever students saw him coming, they would start mimicking the sound track of James Bond movies, and woe betide any student caught doing that. The man was a wicked man, students prayed never to fall into his trap. The fear of James Bond was the beginning of wisdom.

We called our english teacher 'Lines man'. Because he was so tall, and any time he flogged, he would stand so erect and raise his cane like like a football lines man.
