FFS


When I volunteered to be a parent governor at the eldest's school eighteen months ago, I couldn't have imagined that some bright spark would one day arrange a 'leadership strategy session' from 3-8pm on a Friday night. I'm sure you'll all agree that in terms of intelligent meeting scheduling, that sure bites the big one.

So....tragically I'll be late for cocktails tonight.

*sigh*

Do start without me, there's some booze in the fridge.

  1. If anyone suggests doing anything at all about learning styles or brain gym, tell them it's all bollocks. Tell them from me.

    I've been standing in the rain at sports day all day and am wondering whether that might justify a little something on the train on the way home.

  5. Harper Valley PTA boy.
    No peeking at your phone halfway through the School Dinners System Review Charts. No letching at the resplendant Miss Brahms-type. No Reggie Perrin wandering imagination hippo moments. No taking all the chocolate bourbons from the bottom layer of the Family Circle Box. No chuckling at Mr Philpott's leather elbow patches.

    And cheers for the free fridge emptying offer. Happy Hour n all.

    Poor adam - been picking plastic cones up all afty in the rain and tending to little Tristran's twisted ankle. I hope you've instilled in them that it's the winning that matters - not just the taking part?

    Chorlton ally? Mind those Wheelies. Is it still 1957 is those parts?

    Pistaccio anyone?
