To be labelled a Belmont or a ' Delyn ' by your peers in my Primary School was the gravest and most hurtful of all insults and saved for for very exceptional circumstances.
It originated from the local schools for spastics Ysgol Belmont and Ysgol Delyn.
A popular lunch hour pastime for some kids was to congregate at the chain link fence which separated our yard from the spazzes in Delyn and pull faces at them until one of them either ' went apeshit ' or started crying.
As in Joey Deacon?
By secondary school the insult had become more sophisticated and ' Jimmy Same-face ' was the appropriate term for a person with downs syndrome.
