  • Well done Penpen!

    I need quick help advice!!

    Sorry Toots but going to go against orders......

    I want to get up the ladders and remove the glass shades in the lounge. How is best to clean them? I have had a quick search but can't find anything and need to get up there before DH comes home from work and catches me up the ladder :o

    Don't tell her.. she shouldn't be up a chuffing ladder!!

    nutty.. you should know better!! BAD YOU!!!

    DS3 just had screaming ab-dabs over his maths homework and ended up with a slap in the chops.. cheeky little f***er will get his head ripped clean off next time he speaks to me like that.. he also scribbled on my new table cloth with biro which is refusing to come off and broke the rubber off DD3's pencil.. I am going to be DEMANDING another referral to the behaviour specialist I think.. see if we can actually get something sensible out of them this time instead of the usual pile of $h!te they drivel.. I also want him properly assessed for dyslexia.. he writes disgustingly.. it is barely legible!!! And then I want him drugged to obedience!

    He has a severe case of big fish in little pond syndrome.. God help him at high school they will kick the crap clean out of him...

    Cheeky !!!!!! just said to OH (who was helping him with his homework) 'you aren't my dad!' I screamed.. like a fishwife 'No.. if he was your dad you would have been pasted from one end of the house to the other and still wearing the hand prints tomorrow when you can home from school.. is your memory THAT short?'

    I have REALLY had enough tonight.

    I want a vodka or 7.. right now!!

  • oh piggers - I don't know what to say to all that! But the way you write it does make me laugh - sorry. What do they say about him at school? Boys as well are notoriously bad at hand writing because they can't be f£cked and have FAR more important things going on in their heads and it all gets jumbled up IYSWIM
