Sure didn't the ancient Irish use the practice of 'altromas' (=fosterage) ?

Dan Jaman

I'd say the parents breathed sighs of relief that they wouldn't see them for a few weeks.

PeterTheNinth

Just thinking that maybe the butcher should have one of the staff out the front of the shop with a sandwich board, to make fully sure that anybody passing will know that they are still open.

As for that union pr1ck, if you don't like Tesco then get a job somewhere else. Don't hold all the other units to ransom as well.

Yeah; bullying isn't much of a problem if you're one of the bullies.

Farmers skimpped and saved eh

Callers parents had 4 children in boarding school. Richy rich, simples

PeterTheNinth

One of the farmers sons went in to the private school in wellies and was called "wellies" until sixth year. You don't have to be creative to be cruel. :mad:

Parents sending children to boarding school are either snobs or selfish (or maybe both)

Teacher in a friend's son's school calls one of the students "Harvey Norman" coz he shows absolutely no interest :rolleyes:

PeterTheNinth

The teachers bullied him in to ringing in to defend the school.

A HUGE discussion yesterday.

Just in the door. It didn't take me long to catch up on the thread. You'd know Joe's not on.

Dan Jaman

No tech in the bedrooms.
Does that include your Rampant Rabbit, missus?

PeterTheNinth

Technology should not be allowed in the bedroom. Is this woman suggesting that everybody should masturbate in the sitting room? I'm not sure that is gonna work out.

somesoldiers

BOI are doing a FOMO a/c for students- if you are out on the pi$$ you can apply on your mobile and get e100 added to your a/c straight away to keep the party going!

Well I was upset when my primary school closed down recently even though it had moved to a different location since I had been a pupil. I was upset when its original site (the one I was at) was flattened for housing. Guess we all have different school experiences.

somesoldiers

never mind technology distracting the kids- get off the phone and go back and do your job Missus!!

There was one school I was at I'd have danced for joy on the rubble of the site had I known it was knocked down.
Another one became a Ladies College - pity it wasn't at least mixed when I was there, but it was a great place nonetheless.
