Well, that was unexpected.

Big hug, Tigger, big hug.

Well, she has chemo on Monday so it may buy her a bit more time. We'll just have to see.

I get loads like that. Many begin -

Dear Costumer.

I mean, I have my Wonder Woman leggings and all that, but I wouldn't class myself as a costumer. I just dabble with costume!

;-)

Our dog is dying. She has lymphoma and the vet gives her 6-12 months with chemo. So it will probably be less than that.

She's an absolute idiot, but you couldn't ask for a nicer personality. She loves the child as if she were her own and despite constant rebuffing considers the cats her new best friends. She's the softest, daftest thing you could ever meet. She's just made friends with an old black Labrador next door. She's only about 6 and it's just awfully unfair.

Plus we only lost the other dog before Christmas so within a year we'll have said goodbye to both.

I'm very sad right now.

I still think of you as that picture Charlie posted with the long hair and the rock band posters on the wall ;-)

Max is such a cutie. He looks very happy, too. I've got a full on banshee living in my house.

This is getting too miserable. More pictures of Max.its the only solution.

Academies are very concerning indeed.

Many are getting rid of experienced (i.e. Expensive) teachers in favour of unqualified (i.e. Cheap) non trained teachers. They have no time for children who struggle in a mainstream setting and wash their hands of them. They enforce petty rules seemingly to promote discipline but are really just constant paper exercises to "show innovation". They don't teach to the national curriculum and can have whatever weirdo who is putting money in push their own agenda onto students under the guise of education.

I am angrier about them now I have a child who will eventually attend one than I was when they were created and I was pretty fucking angry then.

They are an academy now, as of April 1st (yes, I know.).

Say goodbye to non-Academy schools. They're not going to be a thing. It's happening at a friends (primary) school. They're being asked to jump before they're pushed.

Nothing very exciting.

I won't know until July if my contract will be extended so just hanging in there tryin to be useful. There's loads of boring stuff going on about the school we are based at (but are not really part of) becoming an academy (ho hum). But that doesn't apply to us. We're still waiting on a report wether we can expand etc but we are getting some new kids who are (on paper) too dangerous for our set up so I would think if hats how it's going we need new premises etc but tbh I've been very house focussed, as we've been in the new place for 2 weeks now and it's all been chaos but great.

If I remember I'll post some pictures when small shouty one has gone to bed.

Hmmm. Maybe if it makes Kevin Bacon appear in your shower. Otherwise no thanks.

"Pole position, only their uncle knows?"

That?

Liked Bananaman hated Superted.

What was Wattou Wattou? A bird? Really faint memeroes of that one. Probably 70s.

I remember it Dave, we had a book of the film so I was quite familiar with it. Had a classic cast of Brit thesps.

Aw, would you look at that smile. :-)

Having lunch earlier, I went into the kitchen, heard crying.

"I put a pea up my nose!"

Tears and distress. Frantic nose picking. Got her to stop shoving it further up her nose and made her blow her nose hard. Out shot a peas shell. Checked her nose as she was still crying and saying it hurt. Pea still there.

Thinking next stop A&E so she. Lows really hard and out shoots a pea.

"Why did you do that?"

"I thought it'd be funny."

It was not.

Yup, that's what kids do, Greg.

I think the best response is just

"Oh just fuck right off, mate. "

"Jeez, Person B, why is it always about kids with you? I'm really not comfortable with your interest in children, it's pretty disturbing actually"

I'd just call them a paedo basically.

It was World Book Day on Thursday, but our school celebrated it on Friday, so this meant I went into work dressed as a pirate.

As I was going in, a parent was asking at reception if it was non-uniform day and the secretary explained the students were to come dressed up for World Book Day 'like that child there" (me).

I'm working in a primary school. Kids are aged 6-12. This is a ridiculous, even by my standards. :-)

Suggestion noted, as ever.

Sorry, mate.

One of the kids found a picture online of a dissected penis today, but I dont think he realised what he was looking at, so I steered him away from it quite smoothly.

Yup, I'm back doing what I do best.

Come on Lou, I went through a pregnancy and the weight gain it entails and look amazing now, what's your excuse?

;-)

Pimping the DILF thing :-)
