    Rubbish day for me today.

    DS is not taking after me - he is tidy! 16 months old and he is neater than me :o

    He took an empty packet of choco stars out of the bin. So I said 'no, all gone' and pulled open the packet to show him. Then I gave him the packet back so he could see for himself. So he toddled back and put the packet back in the bin. :T How amazing is that? I just put stuff 'down'. :o

    Neat freak dad coming to stay soon and supervise me decorating for first time. :eek: But after a really rubbish, non productive day I have found my motivation. I can think of someone who will be really really really upset if I have a cleaner house than them. And I don't mind if they are really really really really really really really really really upset. :p

    I feel all motivated.
    Always another chapter

    It's good to hear that people don't think i'm being over the top about the behaviour today. my dd is just turned 9, she's in year 4. can you imagine what they're going to end up like??? i've decided i'm going to go and see the headmaster tomorrow. it's not fair on the children who want to work and it's not fair on the supply teacher. what will she think of our school now. little scrotes (am i allowed to use that word?):rotfl: can you tell i'm still a little mad???:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :D

    right, time to finish off this roast chicken xx

    I totally agree with you mudbath, teachers dont have enough authority these days though to be able to do anything about these monsters. Their hands are frequently tied by PC nonsense. The buck stops with the parents though, grrr, cant stand badly behaved kids.
    The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.

    soappie - i nearly got excited at some white lorry activity over the road from your house but it was nothing to do with you, lol. no one parked on the road outside your house today...all is very quiet.....mmmm..... just wondering why it drove away backwards instead of going forwards. maybe i need to get a life :rotfl: xx

    No Mudbath, you don't need to get a life - it's this sort of activity in my v. quiet backwater that confirms my suspicion that you have to be mad to live or visit here (with the exception, of course, of me plus a couple of my nice neighbours).

    There are only 15 houses on either side of this road and it goes to a dead end (I'm half way down on the south side). The other end is one way and comes off a major town road. There are two small roads off on the other side to me which lead to another major town road. There's really no need to be in these 'ere parts unless you're visiting. Or mad.
