    Would you expect your child’s teacher sacked if they said the same thing to them?

    Setting an example in that call centre by firing the employee who said that would send out a strong message to the other employees to be more careful.

    A little human sacrifice now and then is good for the workplace.

    What you all need is a driver. No worries about filling up. When in the office driver can make sure the car is full. No need to wait at pumps out worry about fuel.

    I wouldn’t be without one now.

    Needed a driveway at work, were 30kto50k.

    We knew the 50k company they had done work before that had lasted 20 years. They chose the cheapest, less than year later it needs major repairs, and builder refused to do it, and left his 1k deposit.

    Built a new fence, 400m. To secure the site. To save money they have only done the visible part, and put a barbed wire fence through the trees, saving made of 1kgbp

    I pulled all the barbed wire out yesterday to test security and walked into the site.

    There are teachers who go to work just enough to stay on full pay, returning just for a day or so before going back off on the sick.

    Probably in other industries too, but.my experience has been in education.

    Costs school a fortune

    If I receive a complaint about one of my teachers from a oarent, the first thing I always do, unless it was a serious allegation, is direct them to speak to the teacher directly, before it comes back to me.

    Most of the time it gets sorted out at this level, when it hasn’t it gives me more evidence to use when dealing with it.

    ^ my mate and I saw it in a scrapper, a good 12 years after we had last seen it a couple of years back.

    Sat near the top of the pile, still the odd coloured door. Appeared to still have the beaded seat covers in it as well.

    Such a good car. Ace for going to the pub in dodgy areas, could leave it out overnight, and nobody ever stole it or touched it. Couldn’t say the same for my old G reg escort, used to turn my back on it and someone would have nicked it.

    ^ That is what I thought, then I couldn’t find any dimensions to compare it to.

    Right back to hunting then, and not buying it for myself.

    A confessional fantastic.

    At our apartment pool, nobody else there.

    I was at the bottom end of the swimming pool sorting out some floats and toys for Little Q, she was half way up the pool picking up her armbands, 2 years old, and then running full speed into the deep end, holding her arm bands above her head.

    I don’t think she had reached the bottom by the time I got to her, or realised what had happened, but I now know I can sprint 25m, pin-drop and retrieve a child in a few seconds. I know diving in is the way to do it, but I realised that I had to get a push off the bottom of the pool to get her to the top again.

    Mrs Q once picked up the wrong wipe, which was a menthol one, and gave Mini Q a clean on her bits. Fortunately, she could talk then, and told us it was burning, or we would have had no idea why she was screaming.

    Fortunate there was a bath of cold water there to dump her in.

    Another pool related one from a mate.

    His daughter lives with his mum, following some mischief in his younger days. His mum takes care of her, and over the last 5 years or so he has really got to know her better and become more of a dad.

    Prior to this, he was very much a part-time dad, and very much disconnected, only around for birthdays, and fun things etc.

    We all went swimming at a local pool with water slide, waves etc. Little Q was about 6 months old, his son was a year old and his daughter was 8.

    Little Q and mini-raggie, wives and me were a bit cold so we all left, he stayed in the pool with his daughter, bonding.

    He appeared mortified in the changing room about 20 minutes later.

    He met an old friend in the pool and was chatting to him, when daughter asked if she could go on the slide.

    After daughter had asked to go on the slide, he continued to talk to his old mate, shortly afterwards, he was asked by a lifeguard if “this is your daughter”

    His immediate thoughts were “oh no who has she been fighting with this time” what the lifeguard said was “she just nearly drowned on the slide, did you not know she doesn’t know how to swim?”

    Turns out when I was chatting to daughter before going in the pool, and asked if she could swim, she had said yes, because she was too shy to say no. He had no idea if she could swim or not, and was pleased I had asked.

    I’m a bit disappointed that nobody has tried to pretend to be the McCains yet.

    ^ I just find it hard when I get back to the UK not to undertake people there on the motorway. It’s the norm here, and legal.

    Was there not a driver of a fast GTR or something like that who came to the UK, did 200mph on the motorway and got caught a few years back? I think he was from Japan, not China.

    1.5 3valve proton mp something or other £250 plus my regularly stolen escort in part exchange.

    No maintenance, no oil, ran for a year, used to hit speed bumps in Heaton in Newcastle at 30mph 5 up and just laugh as it crashed over them.

    Only stopped using it after I picked up another banger, and a mate left the proton a street somewhre, and forgot where!

    Eventually found it a couple of months later with a strawberry pink mould in the footwel from the McDonald’s strawberry milkshake he left in it

    She could do single sciences if the school is doing IGCSE exams which are becoming more popular in the UK.

    Really IGCSE don’t make much difference to career choices, and little difference to alevel choices, other than if you are crap at a subject at IGCSE you will be crap at alevel. Although business studies is a bit of an exception.

    Building bike up, breaking it down in box, shipping overseas, unpacking and wondering why I had put the tire on the wrong way roun after fitting wheel, swap tire around, then try to fit wheel to realise that forks are the wrong way round.

    Unfit tire, undo stem, turn forks around the right way, cancel first outing on bike.
