YooHoooooooooo Staff Room Open

LOL! Did you write to the hosp about that thingy?

i'm doing a degree in childhood and youth studies, oooh i say.......get me! (looking all smug)

anyway, I'm in year 3 (of 6 years as its OU) and my final essay/examination piece is on

'reflection of the course'

basically i have to show them i have been listening and learning and not going on mn every day.

ive done quite well really, but its not finished, it as to be 3500 words.

Then some guy with a beard will sit reading it with his glass of sherry and um and ahhhhhh and give me a 40%. I only need 40% to pass as ive done well in my other essays. Should i slip in a twenty with it when i post it?

Not bad. No kids til after school and I thought I'd be free as a bird all day....then dh came home! Now I've got to make it look like I've done something constructive! Usually, I leave the hoover out and plugged in with a duster on top, so that I can quickly jump to attention.

its an a4 double sided peice of paper to say that I am in good health and there is nothing health wise that will stop me being a childminder.

I have just found out I can claim it back through my business plan (begging letter to council asking for money to start up) as surestart no longer give grants.

Ok, am knackered. Busy am - but all mindees are gone. DD asleep so grabbing food and MN

I have that almost due woman coming tomorrow am so been running around tidying and organising. (Thanks for all the advice on that one btw)

Julia - recipe for famous flapjacks please???

cheek!

I'm ok thanks m'dear. Been shopping with DS this morning (exciting life I lead) and am about to hoover up. Truly I am

How are you?

{Mo waves to MamaG} Do you know, only an hour ago, I was thinking of mentioning you to our new staff room member! I was going to tell her not to let you near the booze under any circumstances!! How are you my dear? Long time no speak!

Good for you fifi! It must feel like a weight of your shoulders. What was it about?

Aparently it goes on in all schools, Julia, my mum is a retired headteacher. Its all about their league tables at the end of the day. Lets face it, the kids have already got their school places and you can't tell me they don't re-assess them when they get there.

i know im being a bit dumb but what a healthcare declaration?

hi I'm back!

I've been really good and got on with my essayso thanks for the flapjack julia5!

I just wrote 1500 words for my final examination essay (yawn!) boring.

I'm happy now, despite just checking out the nanny wages thread (they are still going on and on) and I still have time to chat on here before having my mad school run and having 8 for tea.

yay!

hi maureenmlove, no not new to mn, just been quite and watching.............oh dear that sounds a bit spooky!

at that Mo. And at your docs soak and loonytune. And at my slow typing too

I had to pay £60 too AND I found out the admin people filled it in and then I checked when I got it back and they hadn't signed it - then they just got ANY OLD Dr to sign it - all for £60 FFS!!!

Bloody government and their or lack of funding, thats what it is! The docs have to make their extra cash somewhere. I'd offer to take it home and scan & email for a fiver!

I would expect it will write itself for that amount!!!! aparently they need to scan in the document and email it to the doctor (why they cant just walk the 10 yards from reception to doctors room I dont know) and it can take up to 2 weeks to do!

Well Julia [Mo folds her arms to gossip] our school and everyone frankly, has been banging on about how important they are to the kids and how they must work hard for them and my dd told me this morning, that all the teachers were checking their papers and giving them pointers yesterday!!

Aha there you are Mo ! My DS1 has Sats this week, he's abso knackered bless. But...........we're off to Cyprus next week so yah booh sucks to stupid testing of these too -young children .Have some flapjack x

How much!! What exactly do they have to do to it to incur that much money. Will it be goldplated!!

OMG!!!!! just spoke to my docs to tell them I need to drop in a health declaration and I have been told it will cost about £60!!!!!!!

Thanks Julia! Talking to myself again then! Just to bore you again, I'm going to repeat what I said in the OTHER staff room!
I said:
Hi Guys! How is everyone. Hello fifilou! are you completely new to MN or just the staff room? {Mo shows her where the coffee machine is and the secret stash of booze!}

Pinkchick - any new on your mum yet? Fingers & toes crossed for you.

I've got no babies today, conveniently managed to not have any on Wednesdays & Thursdays! Just schoolies today. My dd is year 6 along with one mindee. They will be all hyped up tonight, as they are one SATS test away from the end and they are finding out today what their end of term production is going to be. They are pretty sure its going to be Wiz of Oz, so I'm going to have to listen to endless renditions of Ding Dong the Witch is Dead and the like until the end of June!!
Happy days everyone!

I'm going to have to read twice as much now!! Please don't confuse an old woman again!

Hiya fifilou saw that thread, poor you have a (virtual) hug and here's my famous flapjack too. HTH

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Thanks for your support loonytune!

i'm a little calmer now!

i really should get on with my essay now, its my last one for this year thank god.
