    A house full of love is the best upbringing for a child regardless of how crazy the house is.
    That is so true:T

    Schools......He was living in Scotland, which means the term was due to finish in less than a month for Summer. Schools work slightly differently in Scotland and he would have been due to start in 4th year (year 10 here) on Monday.
    He's obviously one year into his standard grade (GCSE) subjects. TBH, the timing made the decision easier and gives us a bit of leeway to see how things pan out. He essentially won't be missing much in the way of school for now and I'm off myself for summer very soon.

    I have been in touch with his school briefly on Friday and they will be contacting me on Monday to discuss things further. I can't see the harm in him working through the next few weeks work here and then having his summer break as normal. He's extremely bright and, his school tells me, well organised where his school work is concerned.

    Hopefully at some point through the summer, it will become clearer whether his stay is going to be a short one, or something more permanent and I'll take things from there.

    :eek: when did you start :p

    There's been an awful large yellow ball in the sky, if I look at it, it hurts my eyes. Its made me take most of my winter clothes off and the sight of my pale milk bottle legs is scaring people !! what is it ??? Someone said it came from the south !!!

    I was in Chilly-Jocko-Land:D about a month ago (visiting friends and holidaying), when I arrived I asked what the weather was like, and one of my Scottish-resident friends said said the weather had been really good recently - "Warm enough to sit outside!":rotfl:

    I personally haven't had fuschias with leaves that colour, but there are literally hundreds of different varieties....the buds look unmistakably fuschia like though. The leaves look healthy enough. You must do another pic when they bloom
