People with young kids
at 16:11 19 Apr 2024

Yes exactly the same with us. At the end of Year 5 they were allowed to walk home from school by themselves so that's when we let our son have one. It has Family Link installed so we can track him when he goes out and he can't download apps etc without us getting a notification. Now he's in Year 7 a lot of his new friends live in other villages so he uses it to keep in touch with them (to be fair 25 years ago I used to tie up the landline for hours at a time chatting to my best friend so I guess it's just the modern version of that). Also, and I was surprised by this, but at school they use them a lot in lessons especially revision quizes.

You mention summer months. I've had covid twice and both times were during the summer.

A hundred quid seems a bit steep mind you.

Thanks, that's both brilliant and weird. Makes me wonder what kids character England could take inspiration from.

We can't agree and it's getting heated - are Belgium playing in brown shorts or marroon?

It's just popped up on my facebook feed as an article from ITV news. Depressingly there's plenty on comments (from seemingly white men) agreeing with him.

I despair at this world sometimes.

Incredibly classy statement there from Kamara, shame it had to be said though.

Spot on.

No, Mr Horner, you don't get to dictate when it's time to draw a line under it when you're the one supposedly in the wrong. When I read that all I saw was toxic, controlling red flags.

39% turn out.

In our local election last year 10% of the papers (including mine) were recorded as spoilt. Our choices were - Tory, Tory, Tory, Reform.

And then one of the Tories who (unsurprisingly) got elected had the cheek to moan about the number of people choosing the spoil their papers.

The girl sounds pure evil to be honest. Knowing some autistic kids I can see how the boy may have been strongly influenced by her but that doesn't take away from the awfulness of what they did.

Can anyone help a brother out?

Yeah cos every woman wants to go to a show by themselves on Valentines night.

Although to be fair the spa suggestion could be a good shout if he's spent the rest of the day with her.

favorite cheap meals?
at 16:43 8 Jan 2024

Ham, egg, chips and beans

Beans on toast with grated cheese

Like others have said batch cook curry, casserole, chili (bulking all out with lentils) and it'll feed you all for a couple of day or freeze the rest. When we don't have enough leftovers for a full family meal my go-to is serve with a jacket potato or make into cornish pasties.

When I was a very poor student I lived on marmite on toast...I don't necessarily recommend this though.

So it appears Alaska Airlines knew there was a problem with that plane as the warning light had come on during three previous flights

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-67909417

That's just made my confidence in plane safety dip quite considerably reading that.

The BBC report seems to agree with you on that one:

"...Ali McCann was adjudged to have brought down a diving Dan James in the penalty area..."

Toy you were desperate for at Christmas

I finally got one as a child after asking for years and it was a crushing disappointment.

My son keeps asking for one but I can't put him through it....not getting one is definitely better than getting one and realising how rubbish it really is.

Some female footy presenters/commentators are rubbish and some are really good. Some male footy presenters/commentators are rubbish and some are really good. I'd rather listen to the good ones regardless of gender - to dismiss ALL females is simply sexist behaviour.

Did anyone else see the experiment Jill Scott and Phil Neville did recently on social media - very telling that some people are simply just prejudiced.

Fair play to Cheltenham too for agreeing to him taking over.
