Janty Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 He doesn't get home from school until 5.30ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 wow he gets in late! mine get home at 3.30 I feel robbed of 2 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 He finishes school at 4pm. Then they have 'little tea' which is a snack for 15 minutes. Then he has silent prep time until 5pm. The coach then collects them and brings them home. He has just joined ACF at school so we don't see him until 10pm on Mondays and Thursdays...the instructor lives on our road and drives three of the boys home afterwards.

Janty Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 He didn't get on the trip. Poor lad is gutted. We are taking him out for a meal tonight and have pointed out all the good things he gets to do instead of going. He gets to do two extra sessions of ACF, he gets to go to the evening with Graham Gooch that his school have arranged AND he gets to spend an extra week with us - bonus! We were doing well until the last point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 ACF is Army Cadet Force or something like that. He came home from school one night after trying a taster session with a target paper. They had let him loose with an air rifle and he got all his shots within an inch of each other. He was hooked after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
