You're History

I was doing a quiz with the teenage group I work with when we came to a question about Queen Victoria. What was the name of Queen Victoria's husband. A pretty easy question - or so I thought. I was pretty shocked that the goup didn't know the answer to this. The conversation went something like this:-

Me: So no one knows who Queen Victoria's husband was. What do they teach you in history.
(Thinks: That's shocking - kids these days - they learn nothing of any importance at school - what hope is there etc, etc)
"So what DO you learn about in history?"

The Group: "The Holocaust."

Oh Right OK - Erm well that's me told then isn't it!!!
