"Teenage schoolboys who wore mini-dresses on their last day of school were put in detention all day after a teacher took offence.

"The Year 11 pupils, aged 15 and 16, squeezed into bodycon dresses which they wore with trainers and sports socks, and posed for a Kim Kardashian-style group picture.

"But their antics were met with disapproval from the school, Ysgol Gyfun Gymunedol Penweddig, in Aberystwyth, North Wales, and the 13 boys were put in detention for the day.

"The school says pupils were warned their fancy dress party should 'specifically avoid offending other pupils or be seen to offend the wider community'.­"

One has to wonder just who it was that was offended.  Sounds simply funny to me.

Damn funny! But it is Wales - specifically Mid-Wales. They're an odd lot. A bit staid. Most have probably never heard of Kim Kardashian. The majority are bi-lingual with Welsh as their mother tongue - the name of the school might give it away: Ysgol Gyfun Gymunedol Penweddig. Try pronouncing that after a couple of stiff Lagavulins!

Don't go trying to ruin my Lagavulin for me!
