Several things about this picture make me sad:
1/ The absolute state of him - not least the length of his hair (which wouldn't have been allowed in my day),his ill-fitting uniform, slip-on shoes and appallingly-tied tie.
2/ The fact that the pond now apparently needs a fence round it to stop cùnts falling in (health 'n safety gone mad, etc)
3/ The fact that he's brought a football into the quad (STRICTLY VERBOTEN)
4/ The fact that there is a crane next to him. We always had peacocks, ffs! What's with the crane, ffs?
The place has clearly gone to the dogs.

SLIP-ON SHOES, P!!!!
In my day, anyone appearing in slip-on shoes would have been told he looked like "a dago pimp" (an actual quote, there - wd Mr Shad), given a Saturday morning detention and be made to walk around in his stockinged feet all day.
To be honest, they may have got rid of the peacocks because they made a fùcking awful racket - particularly irksome during exams.
