Night everyone who is going

Right, which of your lot is corrupting minors by forcing them to be on the list eh, eh?!!

AND encouraging other people to recruit without the recruitees knowledge, are there no morals in this shack!!

'sigh' what am I talking about this is JJ shack, morals are an alien concept 'sigh'

OIIIIIIIIYYYYY No JJ hate yerrr? He does have morals! And such a pwetty face

This should be a place of luuuuuurve mannnn.... *peace sign*

Erm...I'm really, really old and I don't know what that means...

though if it means JJ is an idiot and I'm thrown off the list I agree

Menty ain't that old Ickle...   

And... she lives not far from us!  

She's local!

Oooooo... and I agree with what Mentalist said..... so I should be thrown off the LIST too...pleasssssssssssssssse

I have to say.... I am intrigued to hear more from my daughter on the subject of morals...

its a word that normally gets a  when mentioned in conversation 

I read that as loco

Baz..  Menty....

you know the drill!

No-one is going.... No-one is allowed off the list...  if we let one of you.. then there would be a stampede.

Its a strict no tolerance zone in the shack!

argghhh.... I have just gone from having Angry Anderson going round my head to "going Loco down in Acapolco" 

Morals. I have them. Lots of them... they're just hidden quite deeply

That's because two people are not considered a list especially when one of said people doesn't even like JJ much!. To be fair that's two more than on Keefers list

I am very impressed with you today Menty.... your ability find silver linings & nice things to say is impressive!

May even consider you for parole in a *cough*6 or 7*cough* weeks

All over the shack for next 7 weeks!!

hahaha! 

I like that vomit smiley...

What do you think of my booger smiley..

That's revolting!! I'm a laydeee don't you know

its horrible innit.... I can't actually look at it properly!

I was saving it for a special occaision

awww.. am watching HL's... and I feel the need to repost the Andrew Sea Slug..


 "love me? please?  ,,,,, somebody,  love me?"

Bless him!  

I'm really not looking forward to people ripping into this boy, he reminds me of someone I know all brain and very little social skills.

I don't think they will Menty...

we feel all protective over him!   (despite the slug... the slug is our Andrew mascot)

that said...  you never know... he could be a little shit underneath it all..

mmmmm..     I had one of those myself...

the social skills took a long time for her to get to grips with...   but as you can see from earlier...  she's fine now... full of confidence etc...

but it wasn't always like this

Awwww bless Ditty, it can be hard work can't it.  Do you mind me asking how old she is?  If you don't want to say on here don't worry.

Ickle   She's 17....  18 in March.

Things got easier on the social side of things when she was 14-15 ish... but I have broken my heart a few times for her in the years leading up to it

I've got four years to go then, he is getting better but there are some things he just doesn't get and I'm not sure he ever will. Caught between a rock and a hard place with him in a way, they want him to do his Oxbridge exams and take his A levels early for entry to university.  Problem is academically he is ready socially he is not.

Got to love him though he is gorgeous

 I've got a grandkids as old as your son Mentalist... and a granddaughter not far off Ditty's daughter's age.... gosh I feel ancient. *shuffles out of thread*

If it makes you feel any better Baz, I was considered an old Mum, and I'm older than I act on here!

I was a fairly old mum too... and I am way older than I act on here! Although if I say I am 21x3 it doesn't sound so bad

I think we talked about this a year or so ago....  as you may remember... Ickle was never diagnosed with anything... but as you also may remember I could see the traits...  its like they get given academic intelligence but something else has to be given up as a consequence.

Things dramatically improved for her when she started grammar school... to be amongst others that worked at her level & ability....  where she could flourish.  

I think perhaps uni may be the place where your boy will suddenly find others like him...  instead of always feeling "different"... trying desperately to fit the mould of the other kids..

Baz - you are as old as you act!

Though I have always been aware you were old enough to give me a bollocking

You better believe it! Now, take me off the bloomin LIST!!

I know what your saying is right Ditty but Uni at 16 seems to young you know, plus the scheme they want him to go on is in Oxford and that is so far away.

'Stands behind Baz'  you tell her Baz 'pokes tongue out at Ditty'

oh god.... its horrible from a mum's perspective...  losing them at 16....  and this year has been tough!

BUT... she seems more settled... more back to her old self now.  And I am glad she's boarding, cos its like a halfway house for when she goes to uni, and will not have any adult looking out for her.

Its harder on us than them I think Menty

"no" 

"you go to prison"

(in the words of my son when he was about 5 years old)
