Seeing him some time later I apologised for failing, to which his reply was " I knew you would" ! However I've always been grateful for the grounding and it has often helped me in grammar and syntax over the years. I even conversed once in very primitive pigeon Latin with a chap in Poland, neither of us being able to speak the other's language!
I gave up Latin the year before O Level. I had to make a choice between Design & Technology O level or Latin. I never regret the decision
