Ah Christmas, yes sorted already, my brother (who lives on CPR) has booked for us to go to the Crown & Greyhound in DV for Christmas dinner - so no pork medallions this year.

Just had a thought - my neighbours probably have a mortgage on their house, hence whey they won?t sell me their garden, but I could offer to pay off their mortgage (I bet it?s only small like 2-300K or so) and as part of the deal I?d also annex their garden (I?d leave them with a patio / decking no area). I?ll try and doorstep them in the morning with my new proposal.

You are obviously a man of means Bob and your efforts to satisfy Mrs Bob?s desires are to be commended. So far be it for me to advise you how to spend your money.


However, have you considered going ?high-tech? and buying some virtual reality goggles? On Monday Mrs Bob could survey the Grand Canyon from your loft. Tuesday, while enjoying a cuppa in your side extension she could be monitoring the surf on Bondi Beach and Wednesday, enjoying the sights and sounds of the Amazon Rain Forest from the safety of your conservatory. And so on. Just a thought.

I like the idea but Mrs Bob is a bit of a technophobe.

    • Why don’t you speak to head of English at private schools? Might be able to recommend a senior student.. pity now summer hols.   Was how my friend found a tutor for both their kids - maths and science and English.. They also have some mag covering schools as well
    • What is the reason for the change in name? Just curious.
    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous,  meaningless and empty
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
