    Myself and a friend decided to share a cigarette in the toilets one day. This was fairly common practice way back then. You’d get someone to look out and they would cough if a teacher was coming. It wasn’t flawless but it has a high success rate.

    So we’re utterly destroying one cigarette between the two of us as quickly as we can and there’s a cough followed by loud banging on the door. We’re rumbled.

    “OPEN UP. I KNOW YOU’RE IN THERE”

    So we open the door, sheepishly.

    “WHAT WERE YOU BOYS DOING IN THERE?”

    Now we’re both confused and look at each other. I timidly reply:

    “Smoking, sir”

    “WELL I HOPE THAT’S ALL YOU WERE DOING”

    and the man stormed off. We couldn’t believe our luck. Smoking apparently A-OK once you’re not being gay.
