    thanks likklegibbon and lil-me - it is deliberate. i am going to make him pay full price for the trousers and half price for jumper as that's old so he owes me £8. i just wanted to make sure i wasn't being a complete cow. he's really worried i'm going to tell the teacher. i've told him if it happens i'll be going in and telling the school that he's banned from using sissors. he know's i will too. little ******!!!

    :rotfl: Mudbath it scares them more when you don't do as they expect, shocks them :D Works really well with my partner, sometimes when he annoys me I'm nice to him, super nice :rotfl: gets to him much quicker than shouting
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:

    oh my goodness....i've just gone to get the money from him which he totally accepts that he has to pay. he has one of those atm money banks and when i asked him the pin number he said 'it's the same as your pin number for your card'.... i didn't know whether to laugh or cry!!!xx

    I've just put the fire on high to raise the ambient temperature, and pressed the "freeze" button (I didn't even know that was there and I've had this one for 6 years :o ) after reading the instruction booklet completely from cover to cover and now it's kicked in :confused::confused:

    I think I best look at some new ones anyway as its no longer covered by a warranty and I have no contents insurance. Knowing my luck when it comes to expensive things it will break down soon :rolleyes:

    Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!

    :rotfl: Mudbath my son has a photographic memory for pin numbers and passwords, he watched me ordering on ebay watching me enter the password then tried to go on a spending spree.

    Mudbath how old is he? Lots of kids do cut stuff with scissors just as an experiment to see what they can cut. Not making excuses just saying it is common if he has never cut material before. I'd mention it to the teacher so that she can 'remind' all the children only to cut what they are supposed to.

    Really funny about the pin, good time to change it.

    DS2 dropped at footie so just me and DS3 here, he is watching a little tv as he was in the garden with his friend since school. Just going to wash up then get him ready for bed - wine o'clock I do believe who's joining me?

    he's 7 and he's very good and doing stuff like this. i just need to make him realise that it can't keep happening. he probably gets it from me. if i have a small hole in a pair of trousers i can't leave it...i pick and pick until it's huge!!

    wine o'clock 'chink chink' xx

    ps meant to say thanks for reminding me it's the apprentice tonight (you mentioned it earlier) i'd completely forgotton xx
