Geri Halliwell says a school bully threatened to throw her onto train
tracks.

Geri Halliwell had a tough time at school

The former Spice Girl had a tough time at school in Watford, England, and
based the main character in her debut children's book, 'Ugenia Lavender', on
her 'inner brat'.
Speaking to Britain's The Sun newspaper, Geri said: "There was a girl at
school who threatened to throw me over the railway tracks. I remember
telling my dad about this girl's threats and him talking to the
headmistress. It all came flashing back when I visited my old school a few
weeks ago."
In the book, Ugenia is a misfit who struggles to find new friends at school
and gets bullied.
