    When I was in school, if any man failed just one of my Maths teachers tests, then he'd pull him to the front and in a long drawn voice say something like

    'Michael... I'm sorry... but it's B.T.P for you.

    That's right (pointing at the door).... back to pass.'

    He'd then open the door to usher them out and would say

    'And if you fail that one, they won't even let you peel the spuds.... for fear you'd count them wrong'

    And that was it, no more honours maths for that man!
