    I'm in Glasgow and I can't see the sun anywhere. :rotfl:

    Is that because the pubs in Glasgow have small windows? :confused:

    Has anyone else heard this from their darling teenager?

    I had a chat with the youngest who tells me the latest 'craze' is to deliberatey pick on people they either do know and don't like or don't know and don't care about on random forums. Even though their school has 'blocked' bebo, facebook, etc etc they have found a way round it so the little darlings can peruse the net causing grief on forums thinking its funny. (Little call to the school informing them and telling them exactly how to properly block bebo, facebook and other sites). She got a stern talking to about the whole subject, and she now realises it really isn't funny. She claims she was doing it because her friends were. She's promised not to do it again (she'll be supervised on the net and she doesn't realise I called the school). But it made me wonder, how many of our Trolls out there are really a group of teenagers having a so-called laugh?

    You're probably right ZTD, still quite a disturbing thought (especially that they might think its harmless and not realise the misery and upset they cause). The school got also got questioned about why they were left to access such sites supposedly during class times.
