‘Who put salt in the sugar bowl? ‘Who put fireworks in the coal?’
These were the opening lines of Terry Scott's naughty-schoolboy song, My Brother, back in 1962.
The song was indicative of an era when pranks and practical jokes were more or less expected from youngsters.
At Rishi Sunak's school, Winchester College, many years ago, a group of boys learnt that a teacher was standing as a Labour councillor at the local elections. The teacher was the proud owner of a bright red Mini Cooper.
