So what should your entry be NMS?
This sounds like a good idea and is what I had in mind originally, but on the PG thread it gets updated throughout the thread as it goes along. I think it would be better at the start however.

Here's mine

ManOnTheMoon - :cool: Dad of 7 girls aged 9-16, relatively new lady friend (i'm too old for girlfriend! :rotfl:) The cool is because my girls think I am. I've somehow managed to convince them over the years and it's me that's lost the faith in my coolness, not them :rotfl:

debt is a horrible thing. once ours is clear...i'll never use credit again.

Very very wise.

I'm glad I own my own house outright, so don't have to worry about mortgages or any kind of loans. Other credit is, and always has been a bad idea Useful to have the option in genuine emergencies, but not for things like ebay or shopping!:eek:

What barstools MOTM!! It isn't even your daughter's place to make such a decision, I can't imagine the thought process that would place such an important task in the hands of a vulnerable child GRRR

Hiyah :wave:

How's everyone? I love flex time, finished at 3.30 and was home for 4.30 left early today because of the Manchester derby, no way was I getting stuck in that traffic.

Learnt more on the system today it is actually quite easy and better than the previous system (which was installed in day dot) the only confusing thing is
you do everything back to front

Does anyone know a cure for getting rid of a stiff neck/shoulder? Must've slept funny last night and it blimmin hurts. Took some strong pain killers but felt woozy?

I'd never met the deputy before until recently. Year Head i'd naturally met at the beginning of the year. I'd rather I didn't have to have the displeasure of their company again, especially as one of the lines they gave to 12yo yesterday was that 12yo needs to be moving forward as 'teacher would like to come back to school'.

Governor said he'd call me this evening when he'd been to the school and said he was, and to be fair, sounded like he was gobsmacked.

I'm not updating the thread anymore because of one or two troublemakers.

Meant to ask, how cold is it where you are? I know it's picked up here, but your area?

I use a microwaveable wheat pillow sausage-thing. You can make a make shift one by putting rice in a cotton sock or pillowcase tied to create the same effect. Make sure the sock does not contain synthetics:eek:

Unbelievable. The teacher's desire to get back into the classroom supercedes a child's feelings of safety. The school has a duty of care to pupils that far outweighs the desires of someone who shouldn't be allowed back with his old class anyway - how's he going to teach with all the kids trying to goad him into doing it again?

It's boogery freezing here. I was halfway up to my knees in snow today, and out in the country yesterday I was lucky not to disappear altogether :eek: Luckily we have the infrastructure to deal with it and so transport etc runs fine, but all floors everywhere are covered in black slush and whenever I take my boots off they leave a slush puddle and I hate it.
