Meant to say Cor, the story behind the schoolroom one..... it's an Ian Wright photo, the same as the one that Cas won in the raffle and the explanation is taken from his site.
A local paper published a story claiming Dusty Springfield was making £1,000 a week, singing in a Stockton nightclub. At the Redcar grammer School, reporter Mike Hope and I watched spellbound as Dusty proceeded to give the sixth form a lesson in economics. At the end of her chalk scribblings, Dusty detailed how the £1,000 was divided up amongst her band, costumers, managers and entourage, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that she was left with only a farthing per week, pocket money.
