Mum in the dinner hall; telly through a window at Corris

I remember the Staff canteen, it was was placed under the library in that little square between the main block A and the block B where Geography / Science was taught, BUT in our time the teachers ate mainly in the same dinner halls as us the kids, I remember my mother when she worked at the school as a dinner lady grabbing one of the sports teachers and threatening to hit him, because our mother made a comment about the crap / rubbish school dinner I had been served one day at school. Our mother said sometime about ” is that all you got to eat, you're not eating that crap” this sport teacher heard & said something about “what gives you the right to tell that kid what he can eat”, our mom answered cause “I'm his mom and I pay for that crap he’s got on his plate ” the sport teacher then said “oh well if he’s a fussy eater I shove it down his throat” to which our mom replied ” no you bloody wont, as small as I am if any thing gets shoved down anyones throat it be my fist down yours if you dont keep your bloody nose out of things” I remember the dinner hall going very quiet then all the kids shouting “go on mrs brookes ” the headmaster Mr Neal was in the hall at the time it happened, the next day he goes up to our mom and and says ” I hope you're in a better frame of mood today” to which our mom answered “yes unless you or someone upsets me again or my son gets another crap meal served to him today, us mothers pay for our kids to receive a good meal and from what I saw yesterday thats not happening, while I'm in charge of this dinner hall, staff will stand in line with the kids and not reserve the best meals for themselves that come with the free bottles of milk, fruit etc”, (these being the salads mainly that came with a bottle of milk, some fruit, bread roll, and a pudding). I remember her sticking to her word and nothing more was ever said to her by Mr Neal, who she even made stand in line with us kids when ordering our food. Oh gosh the telly at Corris, I recall about 8 of us sat on a wall to a small bridge that went across a stream, I remember we all went down to the village and was watching telly through a old ladies window, ( there was no TV in the hostel ) we all got caught, some of the others ran off when she saw us, I recall the old lady opening her window and turning her telly up for us to hear, when she learned we was at Corris and from the school hostel, and that we was bored that night with nothing to do she even gave us all some pop and cake.
