I did think that too about the new baby pigpen. Thats why when it first started happening I kind of made an allowance although it seems to have been getting more and more frequent. I did tell DD to shout back "I dont like being shouted at" if this girl shouted at her, which DD thought was fab and she did do it. Apparently the snot didnt like it but think the shock tactic of that wore off. Anyway, school aware so will see what happens only 4 days this week and then half term:eek: .

I have just hoovered through, WM draw all sparkly and back in, dusted lounge, wiped down bathroom door, Cleaned bathroom and wiped leather sofa over. DD2 helped:D , she wants to spray my vinegar spray about but she soaks everything so the house would smell like a chippy for hours:rotfl: .

Right best get her to lunch club and then will mop when I get back.

DD2 birthday pressie (well one of them) has turned up, how fab is that only ordered it on Saturday :T .

Its good that she is standing up for herself shell, i keep telling LO if anyone hits her she is to hit them back twice as hard:o I would never like her to be a bully, but i also wouldnt like her to be bullied. A couple of times she has come home from nursery and said 'so and so hit me', i asked what happened then and she said nothing?

When littley started Nursery I drummed it into her that she was always to hit someone back if they hit her first, being a softy (meant in a nice way) she was worried about the teacher seeing her if she did and getting told off.......told her that the teacher can come and see me if she had a problem with it...she was happy with that. I'm not keen on the softly softly approach when it comes to bullying.

That's a speedy delivery Shell :T

GnB.. I tell mine to hit back too.. most tend not to pick onmine though because you aren't picking a fight with one.. they ALL gang up in the culprit... lol.. perks of being so many! DS1 has a reputation as bit of a thug so noone picks on DS2 but I am really concerned what he will have to contend with once DS1 has left in 6 weeks time!

Shell I hope you can get it sorted sooner rather than later.. if all else fails tell said brat off yourself! I do find though if you threaten to tell the child off yourself the teachers jump into action.. and the LA's have an 'antibullying' person.. I dragged them into school with DS2.. that makes the school jump and sort it immediately.. they don't like having that input! Especially when I went in too!!

Thanks for the link Pigpen, now I've got the box out I actually use stronghold! The one I have you need a vet script for as it is a wormer too. It is not actually much cheaper than my vet charges I don't think. I have one dose for each cat left (I get a box of 6) so will ring the vet and ask how much it is.

Emmb exams have to be nationwide to prevent cheating. It is really strict the timing of when an exam has to start. I have the full list for our school because of invigilating but obviously our school does not do all boards eg geography we do AQA but other schools do Edexcel.

Have had a general tidy round everywhere. Need to bring the hoover downstairs and then intend to do a good HHC in the kitchen at 12:00 before lunch.

Thought I'd take a leaf out of some of your ladies book and get me bike out. Oh my god, nearly killed me cycling to nursery with DD2 on the back. Looks like my tyres need pumping up so had to push it back (well thats my excuse;) ). Sat here now having piece of coffee cake to aid my recovery.

Thanks for the tip Pigpen. Will see what teacher has to say. DD is going round to her friends for tea so dont need to go and collect her but will wait around so I can have a word with her. I believe this teacher will actually do/say something about it.

I have a driving lesson at 12.30 so hopefully I will be able to breath properly by then - am sat here coughing and spluttering like some old bloke who smokes 50 a day:rotfl: .

Oops just remembered I am meant to be doing pork and apple burgers for tea, best get the pork mince out of the freezer then. Hope it defrosts in time. Then will mop my floors and put a wash on.

Right plasterer just rang, he got the dates wrong and had me down for next monday! So he's now coming friday instead, so I have moved all the room round and it won't be done till friday! Never mind, at least he rang me.

Right now shall I go to bank to put the money back?? Or use it to do the food shop with this week? Think I'll go and write a list and do the weekly shop. Need to pop to sorting office as well to pick up a parcel. Have given kitchen a quick clean, think I'll stick to level 1 today anyway!
