Hi all, has piggers stopped throwing things at me yet?!:p
Anyways school pics, sorry but its against the law another parent cannot take a photo of that child. In my childrens school neither are the school (only the annual school pic) , school governers etc without a parent or guardians consent. I know because i get at only four phone calls a week asking for permission. I know its not the same in every school but that woman piggers is behaving very badly.
dusty and triker rest women for goodness sakes!!
Ladyl, diva, mumof5, mummyof5 hugs to you all.
