morning all. hope everyone is well, glad I decided to miss black friday:eek:

thanks for the best wishes with regard ds2 job application was on the desk at 4.50 am thanks to my dds lovely partner..

ds3 causing trouble today, they did a maths test and he got one question wrong, the teacher told them to correct the answers but he told the teacher that his answer was right and the teacher had worked it out wrong:eek: teacher very unhappy said it came from a test book checked it and insisted ds3 was wrong. but he still refused to alter his answer.. he was sent out of the room and accused of being disruptive . They phoned me and my first question was he rude. No was polite and apologized for pointing out teacher was wrong but he should have backed down and corrected his work.
Second question was he wrong, Teacher said so but no one else had checked. So I asked if they could check again. They phoned back he was right and the teacher was wrong, but still insist he should have done what he was told:eek::eek:. I in no uncertain terms told them if he was polite he has done nothing wrong and the teacher made a mistake and he should have the face to admit it and ds3 was not to be punished.. But deep down I wish he would learn to keep quiet I never realised having a bright child would be so much of a challenge :o:o:o:o:o

Bless, academically bright but not socially recognising the value of keeping schtum sp? My brother had a similar issue once at primary school. T told them that they had a certain amount of work to complete that week and when it was done they would be allowed to play with the lego (I think it was a bribe to get him to do anything as he was super lazy and she wanted him to work all week) anyway, he completed the work she set before the end of the day, handed it over and got the lego out! She called my mum as he refused to stop playing with the lego. When asked he calmly explained that she'd done all the woman had asked so she should leave him alone! :cool: Can'T fault his logic. Lol! The T then realised he was bright but lazy and didn'T make such promises again.:rotfl::rotfl:

When I was teaching I had a bright student and it was great fun playing beat the teacher with him as I had to work hard to keep up, rather than pretending it was tricky! :rotfl:

I'm with you though, he does need to follow rules but equally, if a mistake was made by the adult they should admit that too. Respect works better when earned and is mutual.

Good Afternoon

Happy to report my lunch meeting was a success. I have been offered some very exciting work :j it's a million miles from what I normally do and much less boring. But I'll be working with an ex-service organisation, which is where my interests lie, on a brand new project. Even better, I can use the work to feed back into what Im doing at uni. So iam very happy indeed

But more important than that......if anyone still wants cheap champers.....Ts Express are selling the £8 stuff too and there's 10% off WYB 3 bottles in expresses only. So £7.20 a bottle. Not to be sniffed at :beer:Im still on a buying ban

:j:j Well done :j:j

The wife keeps getting texts/tags from folks asking what deals I have got so far and what carnage I must have seen at the shops. Erm....none...is the answer

No-one seems to believe me when I say there is nothing impressive on offer and that I've not bothered

People genuinely believe they are getting bargains! :eek:

you're well known in the precinct then!!:cool::eek:
