    oh im mad as hell my 8 year old grandson as just come in crying some older boys shoot him with a BB gun and its left a big mark on his back waiting for daughter to come home so i can go see his mum

    sorry to sound off on here
    Hope he is OK. have you marched him up to the parents yet & shown them the damage. Chances are they'll scorn them but not really give a damn but if you say if it happens again you'll simply call the police rather than waste your time knocking on doors that may make them think on their feet a bit.

    Been into town & all the uniform is either bought or ordered awaiting delivery as a few items were OOS.
    Whilst in M&S I saw a lady in her 50's very 'normal, twee' looking who stole 2 boxed bras!!! She had them sandwiched between 2 nightshirts on entering the dressing room. After trying on she gave 1 back to the cloakroom lady, the other she took to buy but no sign of the 2 bras in her hand or left in the cubicle ( I confess I had to look as I thought it odd & saw her def take them in )
    Not sure what I should have done & she honestly didn't look the type so I doubted myself for all of 1 second!

    You really can't tell can you. As wrong as it was I couldn't bring myself to tell the staff so left double time.

    Really peeved off with DS who has to hand in some course work at uni on Fri & resit 2 exams all on diff days 200 odd miles away. Kids just take the p sometimes. It's more the time for me to drive him & miles clocked on the car than the fuel costs. Not sure why he can't do them at a local uni as other must be in the same boat. GRRRRR!!!

    jazabelle - so sorry to hear about your dla refusal........is there any way you could try again ?
    I know when I first applied for mine I was refused at first then asked them to review it and next time I was allowed it. Maybe your GP could help
    hugs (((((:o))))) x
    I would be unstoppable if only I could get started !

    That's good news about the gun. How is he now? I bet that'll be a nasty bruise later.
