Its Friday and the good days comes to an end

Nothing to do with the kids but today when I needed to really keep the momentum going I lose 3 grade 8 classes to a "Bullying Conference"; was it advertised in advance did I know it was going to happen sadly no, but then I see them all again on Tuesday.... Then to add insult to injury at 3.15 today I was asked if I could go as support on a trip all day Tuesday ..normally I would have said yes without hesitation but I knew I had Grade 8 and I know I need the classes. So being the "hero" I am I said no sadly because I had to get the Grade 8 kids doing some work ONLY to then be told it was OK I could still come as it was ALL grade 8 that were going on the trip and none of the kids would be left in school! Some days you just despair !!!

I have 2 sons, Simon who is settled with his fiance Amanda in Kilwinning and works in Engineering and Richard who is single and doesn't work (OK thats being a little unkind as for the last 3 years he has been an "Entertainer" in various Mediteranian Holiday resorts). He has just been offered what I feel is a great opportunity to join a 4 man boyband tribute group called 4-Bidden out in Majorca for 6 months, subject to a 2 week probation to ensure he can fit in with their style and he is happy with the set up. Needless to say he has my full support, both my boys do, they are 2 of the nicest young men I could have hoped to call my sons and I am proud of the way they have both stood on their own.

I can't give you a link to Simons engineering (Sorry Si) but I can give you a link to Ricks page.
