*lays out stall*


All religions are complete and utter rubbish - Im sure we all agree on this - all sensible people do.(ha)


this Idolatry busines sis all cobblers


If there is a God & he is indeed Good,then Im sure he is agreeing with Snorky on this organsied relion farce


BUT


Anyone going to one of the places must, surely, be given a lesson in the culture and peculiarities that you must observe- whether you accept them or not, you have volunteered to work in the place. Ditto Brits who get lashed for brewing bathtub gin in Saudi Arabia - its not right, but what do you expect ?


I realise that this woman probabaly did this without thinking and no harm was meant by it, but this is a not too compliacted basic idea in the rules in these places - surely she should have been advised or given a refresher before taking on such a job ?


I may not agre with standing up for thr national anthem in the USA, but should I sit on my spotty arse and cat call sarcastic comments whislt otyhers are doping it , then I am laying myself wide opne to a reaction

Fair enough snorky, but this was done a little while back, with full cooperation of the teaching staff and headmaster, locals, none of whom raised a murmur.

Some demagogue has got hold of this further down the line and is kicking up a stink.


I'm sure she'll get found guilty, a slap on the wrist (hopefully not a couple on the back) and be booted out the country after pressure from foreign office.


It is all totally ridiculous though.

I think a worse story than this is the woman in Saudi Arabia who was out in a car with someone she wasn't related to. They were attacked by a gang of men who raped both of them. The woman is now in prison awaiting 200 lashes for breaking the law by going out with her boyfriend.

> I think what happened is that she named

> the Teddy Bear Mohammed after one of the boys in

> her class. Simple mistake to make.


Excuse my ignorance, but who was that boy Mohammed named after? I'm sure there's a "logical" reason why a boy can be called Mohammed without his parents being flogged, but a bear can't, somebody please explain. (I'm going to guess that the rule is that the teddy bear isn't a living creature. So if it had been the class hamster would that have been OK? I need to know the rules so I don't put my foot in it next time I'm in Sudan.)

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
    • So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
