As young Lyce' students we used to 'hate' the TCs who went to the English School. I dont know if it was envy or no, they were so snobbish. They used to exhibit 'we are mightier than thou' attitude'. I am talking of the '50s and 60's of course.
But we ES alumni ARE mightier than thou.
Always have been always will be.
