I see crocs now on top of us, 3 girls, with poochy coming up close! I'll see you all for breakfast tommorrow.......... night night

Soho for that sort of money surely, snoball? :-)

Morning all, just in time for a late fry up. Looks like there are some problems accessing the Traders room. Maybe we'll have a few extra visitors today.

lol, kayak!

snoball These Acts prevent any mention of the problem because (a) having nits is a personal matter which schools are not allowed to collect or have data on and (b) telling anyone that there are nits in a school infringes the 'human rights' of all the pupils in the school by affecting their reputations and the 'human rights' of the pupil causing the problem, who could be stagmitised, suffer abuse etc. The local authorities now refuse to do anything about nits because they are scared of being taken to the cleaners by legal aid backed parents on the dole who have nothing better to do with their time and who like to screw the system for whatever they can get.

The net result is that everyone suffers - daft european thinking isn't it.

Timbo,

Hear, hear. Namby, pamby nanny state.

My 9 year old daughter has hair half way down her back. You can imagine what it's like trying to keep her free of nits. My husband keeps threatening to put his No 2 depth gauge through her locks.

Blimey, This_is_me, life IS complicated now isn't it?
No wonder parents all want their children to go to private schools these days.
I hadn't realized how far political correctness had permeated our society.
I live a sheltered life.
I have to admit to voting for us to go into Europe because I liked the idea of travelling and working without hindrance as at the time we had really stupid border controls, work permits, etc. I don't suppose that those who voted in favour realized what beaurocracy would end up doing to our lives.

This is one of the many cases where legislation or "Europe" is used as a scapegoat for money saving measures. Denitting costs money and to stop it you need to think of a reason. The Data Protection Act is a common scapegoat since most people don't understand it. It only covers records on computer and it certainly doesn't stop denitting a whole school. It is nothing to do with Europe anyway. As for the Human Rights Act, being sued is I suppose a theoretical risk but it would obviously be very unlikely for such a claim to succeed.

Kayak, I suspect you are right. The problem is more likely to be that the Headmisstress/master is worried about getting beaten up if they ask the guilty parents to de-nit their kids.

The GSK chart is a good indication of an impending news item. The news came out this morning about the $2.7bn tax claim but the chart reacted from monday.

what happened there -in duplicate -when only posted once -why doesnt that happen to me on my gains when press close

What ho everyone. Mostly blue day on my portfolio today, odd that with the FTSE down. Still, ours not to reason why.............etc.

Kayak is right about the Data Protection Act -- it was a half-*rsed piece of legislation in the first place (1984), was largely ineffective and ignored until the last Information Commissioner(Elizabeth France) had it tightened up (1998) and the penalties increased to earn her place in the history books. Now it's being used like those other holy cows "health'n'safety" and "schools'n'hospitals" -- untouchable, beyond argument or reason. The current (amended) legislation is, however, based on yet another European Directive.

Can I have a large glass of Cabernet now, please?

If anyone is interested, I'm roasting a pig on a spit in the back garden. It's a bit of a job keeping the fire going because I'm using old fruit wood. What with the smell of the burning wood and the roasting meat I am having difficulty stopping myself from drooling. Bring your own bread, butter and toasting fork. The cafe will supply the carving knife etc. Mulled plonk will also be available as will some fizzy French stuff that goes "pop" when you get the cork out.

Will someone stop that dog from licking the pig!

Socs
Despite being told I would not get a hotel in Cheltenham for the racing I managed to find one. Do you know how far it is from town

The Whitehouse Hotel
Gloucester Road
Cheltenham.

Only downside was we had to pay 275 per room per night.

Jeff 275 would buy you an Artic rated one man + one dolly bird tent etc. I'm sure there has to be a forgotten corner of the race track to pitch it!

Socs, pass the French fizzy stuff and fer gawds sake put some clothes on the dog.
