I didn't suffer through Latin for years in vain! When I first came to Waterford/Kamhlaba School in M'Babane, Swaziland in 1968 I was two years behind the rest of the class in Latin and as my Latin teacher was the Headmaster. . . I HAD to catch up. . . and I did, in an intense "quarter" where I nearly dreamed in Latin!
