i dont think id be any less afraid if aolf hitler rose from the dead, came and dragged me out of my bed in the middle of the night, and threw me in a camp where i was worked untill near dead then faced only one of two choices... shooting, or gassing. . . .just cos id heard a joke about his balls.

ok, now for decent and eternally funny joke -

what do you call a fish with no eyes?









Fsh!

heheheheheheheheh (oh you know its funny) hehehehehe

when you see a lady ...let me know

then we should kep the pound and EVERYONE else should convert....we all know thats teh only way forward

i think that everyone should have individual time tables that are right for them. of course this would take money, effort, and listening to the individuals concerned...so that wont fucking be happening anytime soon!

also... linked set did my head in. frecnh backed english. science backed maths, religion and history and so on... you had to be in the same level set for both. as you can work out this wasnt naturally the way of the world! - i was good at english and shit at french, so in with the bottom set i went for both. now dont get me wrong, that was the ideal place for me in french class, but in english it was SO NOT! it lasted a week before our english teacher told the head she was teaching us higher set work and he WOULD put us in for the higher exams! ha on him.

the problem has always been that in order to use the resources effectivly amoungst the amount of children that now make up one year group, the whole group must be split into smaller parts. these smaller parts must be suitably matched in order to use resources (including teaching staff, materials, and time) effectivly (i use this workd loosely) problem is, as always, the ethos arises...if you tell a child he is good at something consistantly he will grow to fill that view. if you tell the same child he is stupid constantly he will become to believe that view of himself, to some degree in both cases. 'sets' with in schools produce this ethos more often than not. not becasue the teacher promote it (tho often i have to suspect they do) but becasue of the labeling that occurs by way of 'prosessing'. the bottom set, set one, first set, and manymore you could name. these labels (compulsory in the running and management of such groups) are distorted by those who fall into them, and by those who dont. if we remove thses lables, more lables will appear/be given and in turn these will become the derogetory terms we sought to irradicate.

as much as sets within schools seem to have many problems, they also have many benifits. the kid who is top in the bottom class may struggle and fail in the higher class feeling himself unable to cope and keep up. is that kid not entitled to an education that is right for him/her. if schools put everyone in the year group in one class, and said keep up or fail there would be an uprising! we work and learn at different levels, we are all good at different things. Although it falls short in many areas, the 'sets' in our education system try to make it possible for the huge numbers who study to do so at a level suitable for themselves.

after you darlin!

so this is a collection of people you generally think are idiots? ... just checkign like.

people do not always laugh out of humour. . . sometimes it is in defence. somethings we find too offensive to approach in any other way, and so we laff. humor can protect us from things we do not want to, or cannot accept, or ...address directly.

sometimes we laff at others down fall, simply becasue it makes us feel better as it is not our own.

sometimes we are just sick and delight in mocking others.

and sometimes things are just funny, witty, clever even. hopefully fa will tell us some of those kind soon

i had a master plan to make armedilo bars when i was about 8years old. thought it'd be great, crunchy on the outside smooth on the inside!!! no one else brought it im afraid.
i love it when old people still call snickers 'marathons' and it will always be opal frutis to me! )

i dont "do" abroad very well, only on school trips myself or if im taking kids from school now im "grown up" i like staying in england, too much of a control freak to ever fly!!!

im workign in the hols too, tho only three days a week!!! yay! starting monday.

the biggest pain about workign in a school is you can only really have term time off...when EVERYONE in the world with kids is trying to get away on holiday! its better to stay at home.

what have you lot got planned for the summer hols? - i know alot of you with proper jobs dont get a long holiday, but still - whats comming up for you inthe nest few months?!

i get hayfever too, the docs given me loads of strong tablets and sprays and stuff so i just pill up first them spend all day in the sun zoned out! its fab! lol (doesnt stop my nose running but im too gone to care! lol)

you lost me at 'pre-season' lol
the weathers too nice to be sitting inside watching football on the telly!

yay world cups over for the next four years!!!!!!!! i can reclaim my friday nights followed by saturday lay ins!

it did cause some agro in school....we had to have a foot ball free room- he rippedthe chart and flag off the wall and threw them out. ooops! lol at least he didnt rip me inhalf and throw me out. i have to admit, id been wanting to do the very same thing to it science it went up! lol

prob is they make it good and easy on themselves. they send you a letter abtou your garden which you ignor. they send you a summons letter, which you ignor- now that they can pick you up on with out too many people frowning at them *rolls eyes* it still comes back to the garden.

personally, i like keeping the garden nice, in a 'im definatly not a grannie' kind of a way! lol

serves them right!
today someone at work asked me if id watched the game sauturday. when i said i hadnt, she found she had nothing else to say to me and wandered off! lol she later came back to appologise saying 'you completly stumped me, everyone watches the football when england play!' lol bless her!
