Definitely my GCSE exam results.
The U was for Chemistry after I blew a classroom up.
I don't know what the fuss was all about. There were only two people who needed hospital treatment.
PC gone mad! Hang on, this was before PC. Errrr....

Well not the answers I am looking for I am afraid
Did not exam grades include an E?
Not Batteries either
So another clue
First (early 20th Century) there were different Zones and the above letters resided in those Zones
I use A & B regularly and C now and then. I have probably also used D & U but not realised it

Was too busy swapping homebrew tips with my Chem. teacher to blow anything up.

Yup. Did that too, twice, evacuated. Unlike you I was the teacher. Best they had and unforgettable teaching. Long time ago and only did it as a stop gap

I made a miniature hydrogen bomb.
I still have the letter from the school somewhere, it lists the damage and injuries.
New ceiling
4 windows
Numerous pieces of plaster board
X amount of paint
Cost of fire brigade coming out
Two hospital patients
First aid
Burns, blah blah blah
Flying glass injuries etc etc etc
Storm in a teacup really.
"Mark is a danger to other pupils when left unattended etc etc etc".
The best bit was I had to have my parents sign the letter. Of course they never saw it, as I intercepted it from the postman.
Signed it in my dads best signature and they never heard about it!
Well, until a few years ago when I told them!

Perfect pupil. Granddaughter showed early signs of pyromania. Fostered with a few 'experiments' and now well on the way to be a excellent quantum physicist.

Take some Iodine crystals in a filter paper in a funnel
Pour Ammonia through them and allow to soak.
Discard the liquid and place the filter paper and Iodine crystals on a window sill.
As it dries it becomes responsive to changes in pressure (including air pressure - a breeze) and explodes. If some get on your shoes then you can have explosions as you walk around.
Still no correct answers yet, as a further clue the individual letters are followed by digits of varying lengths, depending on the Zone

Yup. One of my Cambridge entrants did that to Victoria's (another) lab stool quite regularly. Good one
