BRIGG PART OF THE PROM SEASON

We've noticed a few signs around Brigg in recent weeks advertising services to do with school proms.
It seems that the season for these leaving events is now under way in North Lincolnshire.
They didn't exist when many of us left secondary schools or sixth forms, but have been held  locally for a considerable time.
In our day you turned up for the final assembly, collected your bike from the shed at Brigg Grammar School and rode off into the sunset.
As sixth formers two years later we went out for a drink or two with one of the teachers, but that was hardly on a par with today's proms. We certainly didn't get "suited and booted" for the night!
We trust all the local pupils/students will enjoy their 2016 proms, wherever they are held.
