    MG, what format do you want the information in? I can do Spreadsheet using Open Office, or table in Open Office Writer?

    Since fantasia is doing Edinburgh, shall I do Glasgow?

    Hi all, quick question re kids for kids as I'm having real difficulty keeping up with who's got what going on where (as it were).

    Has anyone contacted Raith Rovers? Turns out a girl at work has contacts there and thinks they'd like to get involved but if the club has already been targeted then there's little point in her going out of her way to try and organise something.

    Thanking you :)

    Hi there, your post caught my attention and here I am - playing the house psychologist. People can become aggressive and confrontational for different reasons - the most obvious one being stress and pressure. They can be like that because the environment is unhappy etc. They can also seem so to you - an extrovert for instance often appears aggressive, loud and unprepared to introverts. In other words people can be aggressive and they can appear aggressive - but whatever it is you cannot change them.

    What you can change is yourself - you can chose not to feel intimidated; you can chose to deal with situations like that calmly and you can chose not to be involved in a confrontation. People victimise other people because they send 'victim' signals out.

    So the programme, I believe is - working on one-self; learning to
    understand others; learning to 'shift' others.

    Thanks for this. Always good to consider how our actions are seen by others. I did what I always do and was calm but explained my thoughts! Hopefully that will be enough, certainly can't change the situation now and no point making it an issue.
    At the end of the day went to see some of the kids I work with and as usual they made me smile and realise what's important!

    DT - If you're still struggling with collectors I can do Kent and I'm going to parents 13th nov to collect shirts from my dad so also mid Cheshire

    I haven't -and I'm probably one of the closest. Think CM was doing premier league?

    Let her try anyway - they can only say someone has been in contact.

  • I'm sure between me and MatyMoo (just volunteering you there love) we can cover Herts and some of Essex.... when are we needing the shirts by? I can also maybe do a bit of Suffolk but depends when the shirts need to be collected.

    MG I can maybe do London for you, if it's just factfinding (I spend enough time on the net as it is) but could do with more specific instructions (sorry if that is really stupid).

    Fantasia I'm positive something will come along that is perfect for your DD.... it might not seem like it now but it'll all fit into place later on x
