Me too - but who was it that wrote the book, I've read it and thought it very funny (I too know mums like this) but bugging me now on what the book was called and who wrote it.

silverfrog · 11/06/2009 21:36

I got married in the church where they sat the mock exam. It's a lovely church.

my SIL lives near there, and sadly, it is all too true.

scrappydappydoo · 11/06/2009 21:37

Lizzylou · 11/06/2009 21:41

I'm watching and have read book.
I do know of women like this (was told a horror story of a Mother who had noticed that another woman's child wasn't tracing their name correctly, and told her she should be trying harder with them. At a preschool within a Private Nursery. The Child was just 3yrs old.)

Scary stuff

5inthebed · 11/06/2009 21:45

I'm watching it. The mother (Shirley Henderson) played Moaning Myrtle in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (thought I recognised the whiney voice).

NeedaNewName · 11/06/2009 21:46

Of course it was John O'Farrell - thank you!

Dumbledoresgirl · 11/06/2009 21:49

Shirley Henderson is in loads of stuff. Ummm, HP, Doctor Who, that thing with that sexy man, modern day Taming of the Shrew, ummm....well loads of things!

I was trying to remember where I've seen the dad. It was in Green Wing, he was stabbed with a penknife by Stephen Mangan.

myredcardigan · 11/06/2009 22:51
