What Strange Rules!

As I was passing near Calverton Hall, where my niece was at school, I thought I might give her a surprise visit. I had turned off the road, and was going slowly down the long, tree-lined drive, when I first saw the main school building. It was a large Victorian house made of dark stone, set in a large park. It struck me that there was something very sinister about the place, and I noticed that it was strangely silent. I could not even hear any voices, and there was nobody to be seen.

After parking the car in front of the main building, I went up the steps. The door was open, so I went in. There seemed to be no one around, so I thought it would be best to wait until someone came. I went over and touched a radiator to see if the central heating was on. It wasn't, which seemed odd as it was already late November and winter had set in.

A few moments later, I heard footsteps coming down one of the stairs to the main hall. Soon an elderly woman, who turned out to be the Headmistress, appeared and gave me a particularly hostile stare. When I explained to her that I had come to visit my niece, she said coldly: "It is against the rules for pupils to be visited by relatives unless a request is made in writing at least three weeks in advance. I would therefore be grateful if you would kindly leave at once."
