We wondered yesterday why the local kids were all going to school dressed in a bizarre fashion ~ since the boys no longer attend we don't get to know of these joys. It is an INSECT day here so presumably this "Citizens of the World" idea is happening all over the place this week.

I have just told Minor to go wash his mouth out with soap because when I told him the explanation of yesterday's observations deduced from your post he said "Thank f*ck I am out of than stupidity". I appreciate the sentiment but not the means of expression.

Speak to the school secretary, as I did, and issue her with a number of envelopes addressed to yourself and with stamps on them. Tell her that she must use these to send you a copy of every "news letter" that the school hand out to pupils. The School Secs get used to this in pretty short order, at least the ones I have done it to have. It's either that or you have to apply thumbscrews to the child every evening as well as go through his pockets, lunch box and school bag ~ and that does not guarantee success as the little sods either leave them notes at school or put them in their PE Bags which most schools insist (to prevent the "Please Sir I forgot my kit" excuse) are left at school and only brought home for washing once a term.

Our newsletters all come by e mail. The one notifying us of this came three weeks ago. The Boy ought to have reminded us!  Angry9:
