AnW'sMum, Thanks for the thought but there are far too many nutters on scramblers round here. I remember taking dog and DD out for a walk and the dog ran on ahead and the next thing I knew 2 youngsers on bikes came flying around the corner.....put me off.Plus there are roads to get anywhere...........DD is quite happy playing outside, she has cream and a hat......actually, I best go check the dogs water bowl....0

What valli said! I'd have thought that parents have the right to know who works with their children. If you want to know exactly what the legal requirements are, maybe google 'safeguarding' for that particular type of school.Question.. Petrol mower.. do I offer it to KH OR do I put it on ebay? Still no money from him this month.. and I have £30 in the bank until Friday!
Try to get some cash for it, but, if in doubt, freecycle. Or you could offer to flog it to him!

Only just up. I have done some work this morning, but from my blackberry while in bed
My brother has called so I have to go over to winchester this afternoon - my mum is staying with him and he wants to borrow my workbench and various tools ... think I might go over for tea rather than supper, as I need an early night again.
