me too bexy.However in view of the fact I just wanted to throttle one particular whiney scrawny individual(I think the class would have turned a blind eye too) I think I'll take next Friday off.
I'll go and spend my well earned filthy lucre on Crimbo presents instead BUT I'll make the attempt to be back in time for the quiz.
Incog.

I've had the kid at least once every day and sometimes twice.Adding it up I've seen him for the equivilant of one day's lessons this week.It was the voice that finally did my head in.
Even his classmates can't stand him and I'm bound to be aquitted at any trial.;)
The truth is I spend my time either shouting at him or protecting him from the other kids.It's very wearing on the nerves.
Incog.sorry for being :notopic:
