    At a recent dinner party we were talking about private schools. There is a local private girls school that will take them from 3/4! Fees are about £7k a year.
    You're better off leaving kids that age to play on their own for hours in the garden. That way they're likely be more self-sufficient and creative in later life.

    "Socialising" kids (that horrible word used by educationalists) by sending them to school at such a young age is more likely to turn them into agreeable, sociable non-entities without an original thought in their head (although on the plus side I guess they're less likely to end up as serial killers - As Sir Francis Bacon said "Whatsoever is delighted in solitude, is either a wild beast or a god" )

      I spent the weekend making sure I put the bottom of the washing post in the post fix concrete the right way up. Unlike last weekend........

        Spent the wekend in bed with Man Flu. But now it's the working week, I am of course at my desk being thoroughly snotty just so that everyone knows I "struggled in" - think of the invoice, think of the invoice......

                    I did as well.

                    It's the empathetic nature of his posts.

                    There as I'm just plain rude so had to point out continuously for a year that I am actually female.

                    So if you want a sensitive soul you know which one of us to talk to.

                      It was something about his username as well, I'm not sure why.

                      I would have thought with a username such as yours, it was obvious you're female!
