You know all the special mention was done in the NEW HALL, but does anyone recall there was also an OLD HALL? Oh my, the old hall was oooold and boy, that place looked haunted. I think i the only reason i did not completely avoid it was because we had COU and SU prayers there, so i sort of believed that the prayers got rid of the 'haunting'. But still, i don't recall voluntarily going there, 'mbu' just to hibernate for cracke.
Honeslty, there was never fresh air flowing through the place, just smells of bird refuse and dust, not to mention the birds noisily chirping away in the ceiling (was there a ceiling anyway?). In fact you were never certain if a bird had not done the unthinkable on your head. 'Kale' I really dreaded finding my name on the list of people given to house work in that place, i actually wonder what people did there in the name of house work, coz there was never any change before and after the house work was done.
Okay, apart from the birds and the haunted look, i can not deny the fact that its being a CANTAB room did not help matters. I always attached thoughts of sweaty palms and a blank brain to that place, my my my, it was really a night mare for me.
Bambi, thank God there is no old hall in my life anymore.

Eva, what you really want to be thanking God for is the small fct that you were not in that school when the old hall was the "only hall".Can you imagine assembly there every morning? And it had horrible chairs that you couldnot separate. It was like a long chain.
Who exactly hibernated in that hall? I am with you on this one...........I never willing went into that place.
