Fond memories of Mr Burns, he was a really funny, good teacher. I remember being in Mr Connell's class as a young, frightened child, must have been about Christmas time as we were learning christmas carols and we were getting into trouble because someone kept singing "we three kings of orien Tar" - Mr Connell was shouting at us all because we were not pronouncing our words properly, he kept stopping us mid-carol in order to point out that it was actually Orient Are - its hard to pronounce such things when you are only 7 - we had just about got it right We three kings or Orient, we three kings or Orient, we three kings of Orient, when Mr Burns run through the classroom singing on the top of his voice "Tar, Tar, Tar!" - the room erupted and Mr Connell's face was a picture of surpressed anger, he was practically purple. - Never hear that carol now without remembering Mr Burns.
