DD (10) in Y6 has got a place in a really good school just across the county border, about 15 miles away, 20 odd minute car journey.
I don't drive (ms related, please don't flame me!). Currently dh drives dd to primary school which takes all of 5 minutes. He has said categorically that he will not drive her to this secondary school (shame he didn't think about that before we applied).
There is a bus, run privately by one of the mothers, which runs from outside our house to the school, but it is full and it is unlikely anyone will drop out to make a place available for dd.
I have spent the last hour and a half trying to google bus routes, times, fares etc from here to the new school. I have finally found the easiest way is to catch the train from here to a town near the school and then get on a bus. I have the times and fares etc.
I have just tried to tell dh the results of my hard work and HE IS WATCHING CRICKET and murmured "that's fine, well done".
AIBU to think that, actually, it would be a lot easier if he were to drive her, and also that he might just listen for a bit while I try to tell him how our pfb is going to get to school? He told me to try to find out. I was only doing it because he wanted me to!!!!!! and then he wouldn't even listen to me!!!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh.
