When we we offered it my parents and I went to look at the outside and the couple next door asked if we wanted to view their's. The guy said he's been in ours and it's really nice, with a brand new boiler. He also said that the previous occupant said that he'd really enjoyed living there.

Anyway, off to bed now, so goodnight!

PS. Did I mention that I'm viewing a property tomorrow

Evening all

I've missed you today because I was in Bristol first thing, then DS had me helping him move the study, then I've been to college, so I've not caught up at all. I'll be back tomorrow, but hoping Zoey reads this. "Thinking of you and praying for you tomorrow and I hope all goes well and according to plan."

Hugs to all and I'll catch up tomorrow. Goodnight and God bless. x

Dustykitten

Zoey I'll be thinking of you tomorrow, hoping you get your bed and that you are feeling fighting fit real soon.

Valli

Em hope the bungalow exceeds expectations

Zoey hope it all goes well...hugs for your littley, too.

G&B hope your littley's better...

G'night all. Woo hoo - Friday tomorrow!

Exactly, I know the ones that need it that get left behind - if they are off sick or something and miss a week then they have lost that whole weeks learning, the curriculum rolls on without them onto the next stage - how can that be right?

Just make sure they know the basics and the rest will follow - how can you teach a child fractions when they don't know how to do multiplication? I will NEVER forget my DD with loads of pen marks of the 5 symbol on her hands (you know, 4 lines and the 5th line crossing through them all) when I asked her what it was for, she said she was working out what 15 x 5 was... she had not known how to write it down and work it out so had 15 lots of 5 on her hand then added them all up...:eek: when I asked in the school why they had not noticed this and tried to find out what other problems she was having, they said 'oh, she must have missed the week when we showed them how to do it...' angry was not the word... (and putting the soap box well and truly away now...)
