"In many ways, certainly for the first couple of years, I was to find that I was a square peg in a round hole" Peter Wicks returns to tell his hilarious tales of being a teenager. Having been awarded a scholarship Peter attended Southfield Grammar school in Oxford alongside fee paying students who at times endeavoured to make school life difficult. Peter remembers vividly each school building exactly and the teachers who brought it to life. Early days at the school were a struggle for Peter but when he makes a drastic decision and his pet dog Pat bounds defiantly after him, he learns how life can take an unexpected turn for the better and begins to push himself to the top of the class.
