Kicking up merry delights here... F***ing school!!

My sister isn't allowed to take DS2 on his trip and the school have done all the 'risk assessments' apparently and have not done one for DS2 so he can either go on the trip unsupervised or not at all!! .. there is going to be merry hell up here.. if the thunder clouds start rolling to the North East.. but not quite as north as Durham you'll know I'm on one!!

I have quite sweetly said to his TA if there isn't adequate provision made there will be repercussion.. the lovely education reporter at the local rag will be quite happy to report on this one and it will NOT be in favour of the school.. there WILL be trouble ahead... *cue singing*..

*dials number of KIDS with the other hand* .. inclusion my sodding left buttock!

Thanks Juliejim and SSC - made for interesting reading. Also read about the Submissive Wives . . . hmmm, that's not for me!

Definately no me either :rotfl:

We (OS-ers) are definately very fashionable at the moment. I've seen quite a few articles about freecycle, growing veg etc. But it does bug me to some extent. Its like oh lets do this trendy thing for a couple of months. People are doing it because its the trend, not because they need to or enjoy it. Oh dear, I must be premenstrual again, I feel like dishing out some slaps! :rolleyes:

Thats me up to date for the week - like this delete as you go thing (decluttering the list) now I feel like I have achieved alot this week - tomorrow is start of holiday here and I am off to spend it with my siblings in Belfast - so tomorrow will be quick tidy before I leave.

Screw the washing for this week - too wet to hang out and too warm to turn the heating on to dry inside so just flung it over airers and wait - so the rest (only two loads will just have to wait)

Thanks so much to you ladies - I am really feeling like I am doing something to reorganise even if house still looks like a tip!
