You're screwed now, you won't have another HF heifer between now and Christmas:D:D. More than once I had the reverse of what you're talking about.

I dont know . He used to up until the last couple of months last year . He was grand this morning until he got to the gate when he bawked about going in . She had to leave him roaring at his desk .
Im 99% sure its not bullying or a dislike of any teacher , we think its nerves or something .

Our lad went every day without a bother until the end of last year . If a certain teacher walks him to his desk he will go in fine and do the day no hassle but if she doesnt bring him in he is upset . He is very popular and plays with everyone in the place at lunch times , its just going in in the mornings .

A bottle of lemon?

Lemon and lime are supposed to be nice together!!!

bogman_bass · 02-09-2013 01:21PM

1.75 an acre is a reasonable amount to budget for wine and chocolates during reseeding right?

In fairness this lad is alright but he got put out by this big cloud of white stuff comming over the hedge towards him

Conmaicne Mara · 02-09-2013 02:54PM

Our two reckoned country school isn't like (city) school at all, they were mostly out playing sports for their first day. 9.30am they were adamant they were walking up home, 3pm the two of them fell into the car like sacks of spuds
