brexit warning?
Michael Edwards said:
Parliament nowadays surely is
the place where MPs take the piss
and now to prove the very point
it now rains pee inside the joint.
I think we are badly served by Parliament which even noew seeks to ignore the result of the vote by trying to claw back some arrangement which will leave ous in a worse place than remaining in or coming completely out.

Begs the thought... one can choose death?
I shall be avoiding buses all day and staying off the railway lines.

So very true my friend although like all things in life there is a balance to this as it can soon turn to just taking the piss!
But I really like it

dusk arising said:
I agree with you IF banter is what you and i grew up with and regard as the meaning of the word.
However, along with discipline being FORBIDDEN in the class room, respect has gone out of the window in the world of many pupils and therefore todays banter can be a totally different animal to our understanding.
If the whole of UK were to agree with this \'educational expert\' then, in the real world, it would make not one jot of difference because there is no way to enforce ANY rules in a school devoid of any discipline.
As i recall it, one of the first rulings we accepted from the EEC was that parent would no longer be able to physically discipline their offspring. In view of what that alone has done to our classrooms and society in general is it any wonder that the nation voted brexit?
Rant over.

You cads, you bounders, you.... - woof! Fido interrupted my rant. You lot stopping that bantering, I mean.
One school won\'t have bottles of water on desks. I had a hellish first-year at secondary school. Initiation of being thrown in the holly bush, etc.Well, the kids won\'t die of thirst.
Always dodgy to have cups of tea/coffee near I.T. equipment too.

Yes banter in jest, within the boundaries of respect, but freely, frivolously. Freedom to express allows for greater enhancement

Our youth makes us race around, to gather as much and as fast as we can, no time to smell the flowers.
Infancy, a stage of exploration, to learn our surrounding.
Maturity, a stage of appreciation, to become our surrounding.

THANKS UNCLE ANDY : Angela here its 8:30pm here so Im just relaxing and catching up on the News ! BRIAN tells me he has a Poem on BREXIT which he will post later ! Love the famous duet between Louis & Bing ~ Gone Fishin\' instead of just a Wishin\' : Amen. STOP - LOOK - LISTEN was always a mantra of My Mamas : You\'ll never know what you missed ! I do more walking NZ and there is so so much to see & hear ! Thanks for the Poem ! Retirees tell me one of the many Joys of Retirement is that ONE DOES SLOW DOWN and thereby one gets much more out of life and there is always tomorrow. I guess I can retire at 55 on the NHS which is 2043 which dont seem too far away ! But I need to raise a Family (2 or 3 ?) first ! Not a lot of chance to slow down : Brian likes to do everything YESTERDAY !!! Have a lovely Day : Stopping : Looking & Listening !
Blessings & Peace & Joy to you both
