Oh I do hope so. I'm rather in awe of Jah's technical piccy fiddling abilities too. I can't even take a photo on my phone without *rsing it up!

So they have banned it and drawn more attention to it as a result! Well, I reckon we can expect more 'news' like this before May arrives from all sides of the political spectrum.


And I am by no means a fan of Cameron, Osbourne et al..but aren't there more Etonians/public school-educated politicians in the current Cabinet/Labour party than the Conservatives(?) :-S


(Edited: to mean public school, as in privately-educated).

Yeah I know. I work with a few of you. And while the nepotism can sometimes be irksome at least military old boys networks 1) unusually contain individuals who actually see themselves as part of society and not a set apart ruling class and 2) They normally don?t have the intention or power to manipulate the work and money I invest in the country that I live in to their own personal gain.

Hmmm, the earliest online reference I can find is 2003 from a chap who had the temerity to use it to describe his own aphorisms. Pride before a fall eh?


Since this fair forum started only October 06 it seems that claim too just eludes me.


I just made up a word, 'spunt', but some other blighter's already copyrighted that too. Cockbonnet? No, that's gone too...

      Dog Kennel Hill School to change name

      By beansprout · Posted

      Now I have heard everything…..not send your kid to a school because you don’t like the name - so to get my head around this, if school is outstanding, parents won’t send their child there because of name of school? Or have I not understood?

      A quick Google says that it is not undersubscribed unlike many subject schools so those claims mentioned above may not be true. Last Ofsted was good.  You are definitely right about the money. This is what trusts do. Remove word ‘subject’ above Remove word ‘subject’ above I can’t edit my ridiculous errors but would like to apologise  for messy post

      I have heard claims that people don't send their children there because of the name of the school..?  I genuinely cannot get my head around this one. The school is named after the road it is on which is named after the history of the area!  'Grove Primary School' is potentially the most boring name they could have come up with, and for a school struggling financially, is rebranding the school really the best use of funds?

      Certainly unique, can't argue with that.
