Yes
I know a 'public school' is not public, but private :-)
Old Persean? Old Pauline? Old Pangbournian?
Given that I mentioned it was an expensive publis school, it's Old
Pauline.
I suspect I am one of the few Old Paulines who actually enjoys getting my
hands covered in oil, actually. Most seem to end up in governement-stype
jobs :-(
Order of Preachers? Ordinary Prat? ;-)
I could fancy putting 'OP' after my name, with the last interpretation :-)
A mad freidn of my father's used to put 'DSLAMN' after his name. It stood
for 'Damn Stupid Letters After My Name' :-)
