The Best View Comes After the Hardest Climb.

Er, I don't think you need to be jealous of Nigella - alleged cocaine use and public domestic violence don't exactly suggest she's having a great time. 

And she only ever allows them to film her from one side - the one she considers her 'good' side

I remember one school I was in wanted everyone in at the weekend before the big O were due early the following week - changing displays throughout the school….some had only been up a matter of weeks. My son was moving house and I refused to go in. The teacher didn’t speak to me for weeks unless she had to…..decided I wasn’t a team player….needless to say I got a different job in a lovely school soon after 😡😡 I really wish they would just turn up - see everything just as it is. It would reduce the stress and they’d get a better picture. So pleased I’m out of it now in that respect.

This is exactly the kind of !!!!!! I hate. I wouldn't mind if it was a once in lifetime multi billion pound deal, that kinda of obscenity takes selling your soul but it is a bloody school! And yes they are important but no one's job should interfere with every single aspect of their life and frankly if it is a !!!!!! show they will know regardless of the sodding displays!!

I slipped on a wooden floor while wearing clogs when being observed by ofsted.
Flat on my back!

I've always been bemused how someone can walk across to the fridge and open it while keeping their cleavage pointing in the same direction the whole time

I think my very best experience with the big O was when I worked at a nursery. I was a 1-1 with a 4 year old with lots of behaviour issues and other problems. Teacher decided she didn’t want him in the session as he could be disruptive. I took him into a soft play area complete with a trampoline. Well this little chap wasn’t daft and knew something was afoot 😳 Anyway OFSTED duo split up and weren’t daft either as they sussed my little ward had been sent out. Lady O came in the soft play and little fella sussed her….. he started effin and Jeffin at the top of his voice…..calling us both every kind of obscenity a four year old shouldn’t even have heard 😁 I went to lady and said ‘this is for your benefit and I’m going to ignore it’…..which I did after telling him I wasn’t going to listen to him until he spoke nicely…..he got louder and more wild. Then got fed up and started looking at the cars in the carpark through the window. At this time I went over praised his calmness and we started chatting about the cars. Mrs O went out. 😂😂😂

Well he sounds charming! I  genuinely think our place had to be careful as few of the students aren't buying in as the jargon goes. I hope next term it will be better.  But they will scupper us.

Absolutely no need to be jealous of Nigella.
A deceased husband & a violent partner to follow.
Just shows money does not buy happiness.

But she did teach us how to convert self raising flour to plain flour because she didn't like american self raising flour.  Nothing like a piece of trivia to round off the day!!
