Severe Weather.

Shall only write one word on reply to that Litigation.

Well maybe a few more.

Apparantly a girl from Mount Carmel had to be taken to hospital yesterday, due to a snowball hitting her eye. I think it must have contained ice.

I for one don't like children playing out in the snow at school, it's okay when at home as when they come in they can change into dry clothes. They can't do that at school, unless they have a PE kit in school.

All kids at school (primary) have a p.e kit, that they can get changed into.
Another thing, when we were kids like I said earlier they kicked us out in blizard conditions and I am still here to tell the tale. The weather is few and far between, take it from my son who was so depressed about going to school because he knew he would not be allowed to play out in it. At least give them a choice, saty in and stay warm, or play out.

The school i work at you'll be lucky if half the kids have a PE kit in school.

What a lovely sight. I worked last night and every time any of us went near a window we were watching it coming down. It looked lovely and to cap it all we didn't get our usual ward full of time wasters coming in, only the people who were genuinely in labour. Driving home wasn't too bad either, although getting off the untreated car park at QPH was the worst bit. Hyndburn's roads were definitely worse than Blackburn's. I think they are a little more on the ball with the gritters in Blackburn.

I was hit in the eye by a snowball containing ice when I was at Peel Park. The ice just missed my eye but made a nasty cut by the side and there was blood everywhere. Did teachers panic? Not on your life. They were very well organised and sorted me out. I still have a little scar to remember it by but it never entered my parents' heads to ever consider sueing the school or the boy who threw the snowball. It was merely looked on as one of life's unfortunate events. I seemed to experience a lot of those as a child and made many visits to Accy Vic A&E

That's what I mean willow, kids were alot tougher in them days. They are ruined now ''don't touch my kid or I will sue you''
Even the kids say it now ''you can't do anything about it or I will sue you''.

Makes you wonder where it's all going to end doesn't it?


Here are a couple of photos I took today.

Ahh yes, they all know their rights, but precious few of their responsibilities, the price of everything and the value of nothing.

I remember not that long ago my daughter said to me if i continued nagging and grounding her she would ring childline. My reply was that only 1 in 3 children gets through to childline and i would have probably murdered her by then. (Can't have been that serious as i have forgotten what she had done.)

By the way slinky it's a primary school i work in.
