Re: the whinging pom , bars open

Re: the whinging pom , bars open
 

Yes please. JD and coke for me, how are you?

Re: the whinging pom , bars open
 

Slightly pi**ed actually! Am on JD & lemonade myself!
Am so going to regret it in the morning:unsure:

Re: the whinging pom , bars open
 

I have never tried JD and lemonade, i will have one of them.

I have had a bit of a day. Picked my son up from boarding school today as he has decided to leave. He was finding it hard to focus, as the work he is doing will not count in OZ. He has done his GCSEs and started his A levels but will not be staying long enough to finish them. So i have let him leave in case he started mucking around and got in trouble. He thought he was coming home to lay around playing playstation and eating but he is going to visit family in France and spend some time doing voluntary work with the National Trust. He laughed when i told him. He should know his mother by now:rofl:

Sounds like he will enjoy himself!

:lol:Well done you:thumbsup:

Am worried about the transition to oz education sytem for my eldest! He is 14, yr9, & about to choose options. Not sure where he will fit in when & if we get to OZ!

Re: the whinging pom , bars open
 

I told him i tried to get him into an orphanage in India and he looked a bit upset. Then i explained that i ment just to work there for three weeks. The volunter sights are excellent, there were loads of things i would have liked to do but dont have any time at the minute. I am going to make some time one day though.

You wanted to do or you wanted HIM to do?:lol:

Got to go bed. Sleep well MM & have a good day Asher:thumbsup:

Re: the whinging pom , bars open
 

I know how you feel education is always a bit of a worry. I have plenty of grey hairs because of my children's schooling. Both of my children went to boarding school but my daughter hated it so she moved to the local high school. It worried the life out of me but within a week she had made loads of friends and settled in. Now i am moving them again but i know it is the right thing to do. I think we just have to support them and hope for the best.

Re: the whinging pom , bars open
 

I howled with laughter at that!

used to threaten mine with the salt mines!

i am hoping to volunteer with the cancer council and their hospice at home! keeping the lads busy is good and volunteer work makes them grow up quickly.

Sal i expect your son will be ok most friends i know said their kids fit in well:thumbsup:

Re: the whinging pom , bars open
 

Night sal sleep well:thumbsup:

Re: the whinging pom , bars open
 

Night night to you :)

Re: the whinging pom , bars open
 

Thanks you guys!:thumbup:

And if worst comes to worst, I can always threaten him with salt mines & orphanages!:D:thumbsup:

Night one & all!:wub:

Re: the whinging pom , bars open
 

I have threatened my kids with all sorts. I was going to put my daughters hair straighteners on E bay which frightened the life out of her and made her pull her socks up.

Its a great idea voluntering for the hospice my nan was in our local one and the people there were outstanding. I wonder if they need any help from a 16 year old?
