I'd be fuming too. Schools (and therefore teachers) have a duty of care to our children and are expected to act in loco parentis (sp?).

Yay! Thanks for that reminder Martin!

I'll definitely be watching tonight, especially as it doesn't clash with World's Strongest Man (as it did last week) which is my slightly embarrassing must watch programme for the 5 days of the year it is on

I have & I couldn't put it down. So much of his work is magical and reminds me of my childhood (although I feel I'm still in it )

What are we having to eat?

Dried Apricot Jam is glorious - I'll dig the recipe out if you're interested?

It doesn't matter what everyone else says - they're all doing pretty much the same things by the time they get to 5 :wink: And they are all different. My oldest sat on his backside and didn't really move until he was about 15 months - but he opened his mouth at about 11 months and has barely closed ...

I wanted to go to this soooooo badly but it clashes with a prebooked week near Bridlington with the whole family.

I don't suppose there is a Small Green Gathering to keep me going until 2008?

Send Stoney my best too. Too far away to physically help, but good & healthy vibes are winging their way to him and his.

I zipped in to see Dave doing his Two Dead Dogs/Funky Cheesy Wha Wha thing at the Labour Club in Northampton just before Christmas & DH got a few pics. I'm sorry to say I felt a bit dodgy & had to leave before the Wha Wha's started, but I laughed a lot at 2DD. :lol: (Sorry Dave & Andy - ...
