I know it's only fictitious, but the script writers are just so ignorant of how schools are run, what you can and can't do, LEA'S, etc. The whole thing is getting to me now!!! I watch it and am driving Mr LL nutty complaining about all the mistakes whilst I am supposedly enjoying watching it.

I used to quite like it. It is totally ridiculous now!

Anyone agree?

it's supposed to be nice weather again; can we just lie out in our underwear on the roof of the physics block?

[LoftyLottie]

Certainly not. Whatever next.............

well, I took jno jnr on a voyage of discovery to Ikea tonight, looking (in vain) for some shelving that would suit his flat and in the end I asked him if he wanted to be dropped back at the flat and he said 'No, I'll come round to yours.'

'Yours'!! So he has definitely moved out now and I am officially an empty nester!! Woohoo barabajagal!

[swedeheart]

Woohoo barab- ...que? An exclamation of delight, I take it - you heartless biddy you jno. You could take him to IKEA's *used* furniture stores as well - or maybe those haven't opened in the UK yet. Come to think of it I don't think they've opened even here yet, but they will. Oh, have any of you visited Clas Ohlson's yet? They're expanding. They're absolutely brilliant, they have everything you need around the house (not just hammers and nails) and they're never difficult to negotiate with if you've made a purchase you regret.And they make you a herring back promise! http://www.thelocal.se/28656/20100830/

Grass/cress, grass/cress - I think I've got it now Robi. Loved the "parcels":) The tomatoes are crowns don't you think?

A date is a good thing Woofy xxx

Night all.

[netibiza]

Morning all, thought I'd beat woofy to it today, just colelcted daughter from one of the hotels.

[woofgang]

too funny Kit, do you have to take the herrings?
I am getting used to Ikea now.....NEVER go on a Sunday, browse the website first an make a list of options in the shopping list, check location and availability, check out the market level for impulses (orchids, lamps, cookware etcet., leave DH in car and find a nice young man to load trolley, buy a big bag of daim sweeties in the way out. Job done.
Neti I was sound asleep when you posted, my alarum goes off at 04.00.

J'etais excellante a francais parle et la literature mais diabolique a grammaire. La maitresse m'a dit que c'etait tout a fait comme une vrai francaise.

can't do maths even in english :-( I know my tables though!

Oh dear, Robinia, I'll haul him in for a reprimand. There I was blaming that girl who eats all the Mediterranean food for the odours!!

However, you know have a double detention for refusing last night's orders and for presenting me with that dreadful banana!! Being a snitch will not let you off.

[LoftyLottie]

Robi. Email. A suggestion for a new home for future use if needed!

[netibiza]

Morning again Biddies, hope you are all faring well.

Have any of you got a solution (ha) how to get superglue off of the fingers! Surely there is something I will have in a cupboard. I've tried nail vrnish remover, I've tried oil and am now biting it off. Thank you.

[woofgang]

you can get loctite glue remover in the UK or try paint thinners...no inhaling mind.......
I am going out to the woodwork department to put up my new shed shelves..I may be gone some time......

[LoftyLottie]

No noxious substances or 'sniffing' allowed in this school Neti!!

[LoftyLottie]

Shelves are the least of your problems Woofie ;o)

No puc parlar tan francesa per la qual cosa aquest haurà de fer!

[Jude123]

Well Neti that's got me stumped! At a guess it's something about speaking French.

[Jude123]

Sorry I can't help with any new places on here. I've only put about 40 questions on in 5 years and when I've tried too get back into them I can't.
What a compliment Woofy to be told you sound like a french person when you speak french. You must be good. I really wish I could speak it fluently. Writin it's a pain on here because you have to put codes in for the accents so I sit with my notebook at my side to look them up . I don't know which accent is the grave or the acute (can't remember) but one of them you can get by holding the alt gr key and then pressing the vowel i.e.áéíóú but the other accent you have to hold the alt key and put in a 4 digit number.- very long-winded. alt + 0224 brings up à The same with the circumflex and çedilla. Just read that sorry if I'm boring you.
My hair has now been cut shorter (obviously) but a bit shorter than I would normally have it and my fringe is thicker than before because I didn't like the whispy one I had . So we'll see how long I keep it like this.
You're probably asleep now Neti after your early trip out. You must be a lovely mum doing all the taxi-ing. I didn't do much of that. Boys don't want their Mum taking them here and there do they.
I did once take one of my sons out to Castle Donington race track to the motor bike racing one weekend and it took me about 2 hours to do a half hour round trip. Traffic!
Off to do a bit of shopping and then going to clean my car for only the 2nd time this year.I'm even going to clean the inside as well (she says :~) could change my mind)
Have a good weekend Everybiddy. Shaney and Mr S you are still in my thoughts and whoever is looking after me has been asked most sincerely to look after you too.
See yer later 'gater()s)
