 RIP Trigger - Runfer D'Hills
I haven't had a "wet eye" over anything since I was about 7 years old. Such conduct was absolutely not permitted at home and certainly not at school where showing any kind of "weakness" was punished physically and violently by our teachers. Odd really given that our parents were paying quite a lot of money for that facility.

Couple that with regularly having seven shades of blue kicked into you by the kids from the local state schools if you were caught outside school alone in your "posh kid" uniform and having to show no pain or fear or it got worse and you can perhaps see why.

There have of course been occasions in life since when it might well have been appropriate but that early conditioning precludes it to this day.
