You will love this Clanchief......... ....... I am afraid, as someone who was expelled from convent school 5 times, that that system does not ever seem to have worked with me. I have seen it work on others in cinemas, but I have always hated it......so rude and therefore i always tend to feel that i have to repeat whatever it was that i was being 'shut up for', again, but louder. ..

If I am in the rare position of needing to attract several peoples attention, I find tinging a glass with a knife is quite effective, failing that, I have been known to shout and after 30 years of calling horses off the moor.......I actually find that works best for me
