Mr King is sadly now no longer with us, having left for Haslingden High School. He is now head of Science there and presumably on a better wage than previously. A former pupil, he was prefect to 7G in 1999 (best prefect ever, along with crazy-pants-Phil in Year 9), and somehow acquired the nickname 'Dougal' (or maybe 'Doogle', or 'Doogal'... I don't know how you would spell it). Also does a hilarious dance to Club Tropicana...

Sad things Mr King enjoys
1- Latin. Mr King still enjoys reading Latin and has a "Latin Game" on his Laptop. Once he joked whilst discussing bio-accumulation "If I hear anyone say piscus minimus, piscus maximus again I'll Scream" Most of the class had blank faces except for Stuart who laughed and explained that it meant "little fish- big fish"
2- The History of the Napoleonic Wars. According to Mr Grehan Mr King knows more about this subject than either he or Mr Elkington
3- Books on Quantum Physics. On Year 9 Camp 2006 he brought a book on that subject with him when we went for the 'Mountain Biking Activity'. And he even found time to read it.
Mr King's Laptop
Mr King's Laptop, apart from having an outrageously large number of Aerosmith pictures on is called "Mithrandir" and automatically loads MSN whenever it is turned on... Attempts to read this address failed. He, over the course of the school year 2005-2006, admitted to 8S that his brother, Graham works at the Ministry of Defence and collects cacti.
Music Taste
- Megadeth are great - I just like the guitar work.
- Once during a quiz on drugs cigarettes and alcohol, as a bonus question he played Smoke on the water and asked us to guess the name of it. He was horrified that only 2 people seemed to know, and even more horrified when some people thought the song was called Motorhead!
- If he ever starts talking about Aerosmith just tell him about the time when they were all so stone that every member of the band was playing a different song and they didn't notice.
