Katie can recognise letters of the alphabet!

She got a VTech Laptop for Christmas and one of the games on it is match the letter on the screen, she picks 5 or 6 letters correctly every time!

Happy Birthday Fergus
Kindof- Good luck

Relationships - I'm in the fall apart completely - I would cope eventually but it would take a long time for me to get there.

Kind of: My contrations started as tightenings about 7 minutes apart then they'd stop for an hr then they'd start 5 mins apart worse then stop again!
By the time I'd decided this was it and got to the hospital they were every 3 mins then stopped! Started an hr later again and K was born within 3.5 hrs!
Don't always believe that if they are not constant thats its not happening! I never knew they could start and stop.

Kindof, (hello btw!)
Also..make sure you have something to eat and drink even if you don't feel like it as not eating and drinking for a while will result in low ketone levels which can slow or even stop contractions. This happened to me,my contractions just wern't forming a regilar pattern...untill I drank a couple of sugary coffees and ate a slice of toast.

Hi Mookie...
Oh, and thank you for recommending the litmus test... I'm on my 3rd trial for them

How long have you been with them? I've been with them since before Alice was born and I've only just started my second trial.

Susan - our parts manager did hunt everywhere he could think of, but was restricted as we needed to keep the insurance company happy with costs.

Totally confused by this - have I forgotten something or do you mean someone else?

Got a phonecall from school this morning. Apparantly the girl is so distressed over what James wrote last night, that she can't come into school today and the mother wants James punished. The headmaster only had edited copies of what James and his friend wrote yesterday.

Been through Facebook and all the comments she wrote about James have mysteriously disappeared. There were comments calling him names, the liar comments and comments slagging me off because I can't afford to pay for him to go to an expensive gym club that she goes to.

I know James isn't innocent as he should have wrote that he hated her last night, but now she's made it look like she's the innocent party in all of this by deleting all the things she wrote.

Head was very patronising and basically told us we were crap parents for letting him go on Facebook, other internet chat stuff and xbox live.
...
Really annoyed about it all as school have sided with the girl based on her edited evidence and they are not willing to listen to the whole story.

I think it's a completely over the top reaction to call you in to school over one comment a child posted outside of school. If he's said it to her face I bet they wouldn't be calling you in about it and treating it the same way. There seems to be something about computers and the interent which makes schools be unreasonable sometimes. Are they taking any action against him or have they "just" had words with you about it? I would recommend that you take screen shots of any nasty comments she makes in future no matter how minor or trivial they are. Also depending on how well you know her mother perhaps when she starts saying things, you could somehow politely alert her mum to it? Perhaps he could keep a diary in a word document or have a private blog which he could use to vent frustration without other people seeing it?

susan ive always filled my fridge with fruit and veg and said to zoe help yourself just let me know when we've run out

:rotfl: Hopefully I can do that when Alice is older - if I did that now (let her have free access without checking with me) she'd eat nothing but fruit.

Susan - regarding people in the bottom of the class. I remember a lad being in my maths group - ours went 1-7 and he was in Set 2 with me. He really should have been in group 5 or 6 but for some reason they put him in 2. He was a bit of a troublemaker so I don't know if they did it to shame him but I used to finish my work before everyone else and then sit and tutor him. Used to wind the teacher up and he would tell me to move onto the next chapter but I felt it important to help this lad.
Wasn't long before a few of us complained about the teacher and about 8 of us got moved into a class of our own with the Deputy Head including this lad who eventually got put into a set he should have been in.

I was always in a high set (I'm brainy dontcha know! ) but I always felt sorry for people who were in the 'dumb sets' as people used to call them (not me!)

I don't mind setting in Secondary Schools but it's very sad when you come across six year olds who think they're rubbish/dumb/useless because they're bottom of the class - it's like they've already been pigeonholed for life.

In which case I'd recommend making screen shots of all her abusive comments in future,

She's blocked James from her Facebook, but I've shown him how to print screen and save the image, and shown him how to save MSN conversations. If anything nasty is posted about him, I'll be taking that straight in.

Do you know her mother?

No. They moved here a couple of years back and live in another village, so I haven't really got to know them at all.

Is she going to the same school next year? (It is this yr they are moving schools eh? Or am I making things up?!)

Luckily she's going to another school, so after July, hopefully he'll never see her again. I pointed that out to James last week when she caused the bust up with his best mate, which is why the best mate is more important as he'll be going to school with him for at least the next 5 years and he lives nearby so they play together lots out of school.

Never got my blood test results back. Rang up but the computer froze and she said she would ring me back but she never did.

Also got the car back and it wasn't as expensive as I thought. It cost £250 altogether which included the cost of the service and the MOT, and I was expecting having to pay for the tire, so about £100 extra for the work that needed doing.

Just finished my essay and that's gone now, so I feel a bit calmer now.

Phew, one left and she's not going until tomorrow evening. My lounge looks like a bombs hit it, well almost. They have been given the rubbish bin and 10mins.

SM, I'll partake in a glass with you and Glam! I have a cider.
