The only good thing I've seen is Waterloo Road, but for some reason I've never enjoyed it, even though everyone else seems to love it!

Pfft!

I can't imagine a Mrs Marcus - I think I wouldn't know how to treat a female without making her storm off and throw the scolding iron at me!

That's pretty much married life, so I've heard.

I don't think I would ever marry - I'd prefer to just live freely!

Not many blokes do!
A lovely meal inspired (copied) off the telly always goes down well though and providing you are not burned too badly and concious enough to boil some veg, the skills you learn will only impress and help put things right.

More original than a bunch of flowers from Sainsburys or the petrol station!

That i almost forgot i'm at placement today by sleeping in.

Normally only do Friday's!

Man Flu

Experienced the full force of how rude some of the Sixth Formers are in my school.....

Every Children in Need, they dress up in ridiculous outfits and collect the £1 from everyone for non-uniform. They all seemed to walk past my tutor room, so my tutor told me to go and get some to come and get our money. I walked down the main corridor, an found two walking out of an IT suite. I stumbled my words out a bit, and asked,

'Would, would you come down to 105 please?'

It was then that I realised they didn't actually have any buckets. I immediately got the following response,

'Do I look like I've got a fucking bucket in my hand you stupid twink?!'

I was pretty blown away! - you would think with them being 17/18, they would be pretty mature!

Wellllll...  
I wouldn't expect that! No need for them to be rude though.

Our Sixth Form is the equivalent of a school Cherry Knowles. Not one normal person in the entire Sixth Form. Doesn't help that our Head of Year is off her rocker either, mind...

The fact that Sixth Formers are allowed to wear whatever they want, is sometimes taken literally......

There is one with about 10 piercings on her face!

Our uniform is more lenient than lower down in the school, but we still do have one...

In summer, just a white shirt and black trousers. In winter, add a black jumper. Ties are optional but it gives a bit more warmth and they look fairly decent anyway so I tend to wear it.

There were some, dare I call 'emos', who went through Years 7-11 being forced to keep their hair normal, not pierce their ears, etc.

The minute they got into the sixth form, they were carrying depressing music albums around with them!

When I went to The Chorister School, I started in 1991 and had to wear short trousers till 1993...bloody horrible it was on Winter

When I went to Easington Comp, pupils were allowed to wear one stud or hoop in each ear, I got pulled all the time because I wore 2 im my left ear...

As for haircuts, it was alright to have it cropped and when I was 14 I decided I wanted a few weeks off so decided I would shave my hair and go one step further and attack it(and eyebrows) with a razor blade...to say I looked like an idiot and it was round about the time my psychiatrist gave me a sicknote because of my irrational, erratic and unpredictable behaviour...I must be one of the only people ever to recieve a sicknote for school

Does being assaulted by physco scruffs in York qualify? He may have been a bit paranoid that I was taking photos of him because I had my camera out...

What's happened?? You alright?

(15 Nov 2014, 9:31 am)aureolin wrote What's happened?? You alright?

I was waiting for those Park and Ride Versas near the wall, and I hadn't actually used my camera in a good 15 minutes as I'd been talking to people on Facebook and all... Then this drugged up drunk came up in my face and threatened to kill me (in a rather loud and aggressive manner) if I took another photo of him, proceeding to shove me quite forcefully. It took me by surprise so I stumbled a little, then I walked off without saying a word. A woman saw the whole thing but didn't even say anything - to either me or the bloke... I'm alright though - just a little taken aback - guess it could have happened anywhere.

No need for that like...hope your ok pal

Hope your alright Dan.

I would report it if I were you, mate. No doubt with it being in the city centre, some CCTV would have picked it up.

Bang out of order. Hope you're alright.

Hope your okay.
I fear this will happen to me, I've already had one come up to me in Ashington and said "I hope you aren't talking photos of me" thankfully he seemed in a joking manner. Also get many dodgy looks from people.

Yeah I hope he's okay too!
I've had people come up to me and say that, but it was in a joking manner as you say :0

Cheers, all.

The streets of York are getting a lot busier now - most of whom are a lot more presentable than that bloke earlier!

I'd have been happier if a driver said/done it, as you could basically guarantee they'd lose their job as a result if there was sufficient evidence (and they'd therefore be worse off!)

No harm done... If anything, it's taught me to have my guard up a bit more, just so I can avoid anyone looking a bit suspicious.

Spot on! He knows he shouldn't be doing it.

May I add, as the target of this post that if anyone has an issue they wish to discuss with me then do so by any private channel they feel comfortable with. Has anyone heard of the malicious communications law?

Yup. Don't know much about it. We had a lesson on it in R.E. at the start of the year.

I don't tend to pay much attention in that subject, but is it basically stuff like blackmail and threats, etc.?

Should say the target of the deleted post lol. Marcus just google Chloe Madeley Twitter threats and that will give you a fair idea

Oh, so stuff like rape and death threats? I get it now.

Not exclusively that. I told this individual some time ago I didn't wish to associate with him and gave him my reasons why. I thought that was the end of it as I have not seen nor spoke to him since.
