Guest Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Can you hear that silence? Well that'll be the last silence I get till August 23rd, after noon today, when the school breaks for the summer holidays. And it's started raining..........

Lesley-Jean Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Scotland is always a few weeks ahead of us down in England. Schools don't finish here until the end of July Shona, so we still have about 3 weeks of peace left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Unfortunately there's not much change for me in the summer hols I've managed to get a week off in August, and may be able to take another day somewhere too, but it's all coxing and boxing here - my folks usually have Rosie for a week, her Dad might take some time off to be with her. But generally, she loves going to the local club - it's great fun and she does get worn out. I'd love to be able to have more time with her though.

Karen & co. Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Summer hols are really hard for parents who don't get school hols I was in tears at work today cos I was missing my first sports day in since Daniel was 4 (he's now 14!) and when I eventually got there Sarah had fallen in her race and hurt her knee Next year I'll go come what may, might have to throw a sickie!!!! karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ali-s Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 The school where I work has a summer school holdiay type of thing when all the boarders have gone home. It lasts for 5 weeks. Lots of work but very, very nice food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
