  1. I have never seen this film on TV, and thought it should have been by now- does any one know any reason why it is never on tv?( I mean free tv not sky etc?)I wondered if it is banned?- I remember it as being very powerful and one of the films everyone should see.
  2. I think some nannies might take some salary ( fully NI and taxed- say 80%)-and some cash ( undeclared) but don't quote me on this as it was a long time ago.......
  3. try a nany agency- i think cinderellas at crystal palace- it wont be as expensive as emergency nannies- but you are prob too late?
  4. the oyster card says " it will be no more"- but I would def buy a one week travelcard to be sure.
  5. Schools break up today hooray -no more nagging to get up- on the other hand the kitchen cupboards will be bare every day!.( those teenagers)
  6. do not waste your money on a top and tailing bowl!( I think that is what they are called) any old margarine container will do.
  7. what did you have to go and get a brown one for?
  8. I vote this thread is out of hand and admin should stop it now.
  9. try feigning a headache- pop out for some nurofen and fresh air. Seems to take my colleague 20-30 mins.
  10. How can you possibly judge? Are you so perfect that you can stand there and criticise others for one cigarette? You don't know the womans circumstances.
  11. I work for quite a big company of 400 plus and we always ask friends and family first- saves agency fees- we get an introductory bonus if it works well and everyone is happy. You would not recommend anyone if you thought they would not work out. Now I look at it your way I see why you might feel it is unfair , but I think that is how life is -so you have to get out there and network like crazy!!
  12. One cigarette? You cannot judge people like this. You do not know them or their circumstances. She might have been some one that cut back from 40 a day to 1 a day.
  13. The Thomas one is so funny, you get caught up in it yourself- our son is 18 now, but we were punting on the River Stour in CAnterbury yesterday and my husband could not stop himself saying " look there is a Thomas in the river we can almost reach it for you..." we managed not to rescue it. But I am sure we had duvets, bins, lights, pencil cases, PJ's the lot. Not interested in trains now at all.
  14. i think 10.30 is the latest they should ( or are ) allowed. you can prepare children and pets if you know there is going to be one-but it is not much fun getting up at that time of night to reassure all and sundry. I expect the people who did it did not have young children of their own or sensitive animals. There are lots of people who are just ignorant and do not intentionally do these things to upset you- they just have no idea. If you do not make your feelings known it might happen again. But please bear in mind that they probably just not informed and not doing it to make your life hell Miss P.
  15. if you are already a competent cyclist and have good road sense then it should be possible. the theory test is not too difficult and you should get that done asap - you have -I think 2 years after that to get your practical done. I htink the test changes on 4th october and will get harder? so ther may be a rush for tests before then.?
  16. have to do the food market off hte ramblas- the best food is down nearer to the harbour in - I htink the gothic quarter- lovely chickens cooked on spits and seafood.
  17. or you could e mail the producers. it does depend how well you store it too. We did the same as you - but asked when we bought the wine and they advised 2 years- it was lovely.:)-D
  18. i think they sleep 15-18 hours in 24 hours.
  19. learning to drive is a good one- can get the theory part done this summer and as many lessons as you can afford or teach yourself. but oh the x box and pc suck them in don't they??
  20. yes the police are so much better at this........
  21. it wil be so obvious if you start parking there though...
  22. Having a car will be easier but a lot depends on how often you come home. If you stick to just going up there begining of term and coming back end of term then it would not be worth it. If you did have a car you would use it more than that though-it might be a good way of making friends- or being taken advantage of! I would have thought you would be in a minority having a car, and if you plan your journeys home by train in advance it is quite cheap - or going Natioanl Express Coach is even cheaper.
  23. With both schools all they can say is what the catchment was last year, it all depends on who is applying and where they live- plus all the siblings etc. one year you can get in the next year not. Or you can stay on a waiting list and hold out for a place later.
  24. If you have ever challenged these kids- and you are bigger than them they are pathetic and run away and say you are threatening them and abusing them and they will call the police etc etc
  25. will you dye it back to our normal colour afterwards? i could not manage the roots, but could flirt with a week of being blonde as an experiment if I know it was going to go back to brown.
