There was that stuff that came in many guises and that we called stodge,some sort of dough boy.

Well that could have been used as a weapon of mass destruction if lobbed in the right way.

It could be worse.

If my sis in law threw her fruit cake at anyone, she'd be charged with Assault with a Deadly Weapon!

I think she puts cement in the mix :-(

Sue,
The only part of school dinners that I could eat was chocolate concrete. Perhaps the flying flapjacks were made with some of the same ingrediants.

Perhaps the cutlery will be taken away next.

Far more dangerous than a flying flapjack.

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D I mentioned this to my Son, he said the flapjacks at his Comp were "rank" and did not have enough syrup in them. Maybe its the mixture the schools are using. The less the syrup the harder the mixture and more dangerous the corners :-D

Kay,Only for table corners,

they don't make them for flapjacks can't make a machine small enough.


Edit,,Isn't it against H & S to send a child home on their own.

My grandchildren that go to High school have to give a parent/guardian/grandparents phone number on the form when they start at the school so the teacher/head can phone the parent to pick them up from school office..

Kay????

Perhaps they could turn it into a geometry lesson - calculate whether you get a worse injury from a 90 degree square flapjack, or is an equilateral triangle more lethal than an isoceles :-D

The lad may not have been a wimp but schools will send any child home if they have been hit in the face or head. The news said he had been hit in the eye so I would imagine the school was being safety conscious in our compensation culture.
The school my grandchildren go to send children home if they get a graze in the playground because they are not allowed to use plasters etc so the child has to go even if they don't want to.

A big dollop of very hot custard or semolina fired from a spoon always caused pretty painful burns when I was at school.

We didn't have flapjacks.
