  1. Lol, I don't mean to sound like a suck-up, but me and Bek were discussing this the other day, and we both agreed that you, sir, were one of the 'Mr Howles' that one of the comments spoke about, and that we were incredibly fortunate and happy that we've had the opportunity to have you as a teacher. I also think it's something that everyone in Mod/Anc/HExt thinks, but hasn't enough courage to say.* So...[feeling awkward] I guess I want to say, thank you. ^_^

    * -and there, I've proven that nothing stops me from saying what I think...I swear, I'm going to get shot one day.

    Thank you so much for your comments Jess! Blushes!! I really enjoy our classes and I was hoping that you were too.

    But I really think that it has a lot to do with the attitude that people bring to class with them. I think that I am the lucky one really as you and your classmates are not just great history students. You are also lovely people!
