If your son/daughter is

a) old enough to be in secondary school
b) intelligent enough to go to an acdemically selective school

they are perfectly capable of making themselves to and from said school alone, or at the very least to the end of the road, so that you don't have to stop on zigzags right infront of the school blocking traffic, causing caos, because you believe your offspring is incapable of walking that distance.

LOL! Bad afternoon?

DD phoned DH from the end of the road the other day, to say it was pouring with rain and could she get a lift? He said 'ah well, you won't melt, unless you're a witch like ya mother!' Grin

I went to school across the city and often took the metro and 2 buses to get there.

Funnily enough I was ok (and had a good
Laugh on the bus)

MML got stuck behind a queue of parents dropping off this morning, then when on way back got stuck behind them collecting.

This gets on my pip although the children in question are yr 6 and it's certainly not an academically selective school, but if the stupid dozy bint stops abruptly without signalling in front of me again on a single lane chicane to let her children out I might ram her. It will not hurt my old Jeep a jot but it might make her think twice in her sparkly new bmw.
Laziness and inconsiderateness!
