My Music Teacher - Mr Iddon

One of the funniest things I ever witnessed, although it might lose a little in translation, was in Music with Mr. Iddon.

Before he came in we had the keyboards out, the ones with the little square microphones on the curly wires, and had all been recording saying words into them, so we could play them back at different pitches by using the high and low keys.

Simon Lyon, a friend, had recorded "no" on my keyboard just before Mr. Iddon came into the room. It was great getting my keyboard to say "n,n,no,n,no"

So Mr Iddon finally came into class, and raised his voice above all our noise. "ALRIGHT, EVERYBODY, QUEIT! Everyone sit down!" he bellowed and made his way to his desk.

Everyone instantly fell silent and began to sit down. In the silence as we were sitting, I leant forward to get seated and accidentally caught the lowest key on my keyboard. It was as if a giant had descended from the heavens as the deepest, rumbliest "NNOOOOOOO!" boomed out from my desk.

Mr Iddon used to breathe through his nose.
