Martin B Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 At last lesson, I got a letter given too me like all the other pupils. After school had consolidated with the MET office, they have decided to shut school tomorrow as a precaution! Sean and I aren't going to tell Mum and Dad though!

SarahJo Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Tell your folks Martin ... NOW . Right now thats you told ... Ben and Joe had a letter too, but it said to listen to the local radio station, to hear IF school will be shut tomorrow. Then there were bits re. wellies and indoor shoes etc. BUT .......... Don't tell anyone ... but if there is anything decent, I will take them to the farm sledging in the morning, and then take them in with me, as I am a dinner lady . Have fun if there is any white stuff tomorrow Martin ... but wrap up warm, remember you are suffering from "Man Flu" . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 TYPICAL! I only work one day a week, and it's tomorrow! And if I don't go, I don't get paid. :pray: Please don't snow until Friday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paola Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Just been told on the tv that we could have 15cm in our region I think that my daughters school will prob close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Sean and I aren't going to tell Mum and Dad though! That's just plain irresponsible Martin. Anything could happen to you and if your parents think you are safely at school, think how they would feel if some disaster befell you and your daft mate.

Lesley Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Sean is Martin's brother - and I'm sure they will have told their parents by now - haven't you Martin? I heard the schools in your town were closing - Phil is quite right, we may not even get any snow in this area!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 My girls are hanging out for a snow day tomorrow, but we won't know for sure until the morning - we just check on the local radio website as they have a list.The school closes if the buses can't make it in - the school is on a very steep hill on a single lane country road. Closing a school because it might snow is a bit odd, isn't it??? Martin,I agree with the others on here.Be a sensible lad & tell your Mum, or you might regret it when she finds out & decides you cannot be trusted again...........

Chicken Licken Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I would love a now day too - It was -6 here this morning when I left for school and -4 now. If the buses don't run then school will close - please stagecoach.....Pleeeeaaasse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura007 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 it seems we are to get about 6 inches of snow overnight in nottingham, usually we are quite lucky and we get spared the heavy snow fall. but no doubt the trams, trains and buses will come to a cmplete halt at even the feintist wiff of snow.

The Dogmother Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 None here either Peeps I think it's plain irresponsible closing the school in case there's snow , what does that teach the children about work ethic? Rosie had a note today warning that the school may close tomorrow if there's bad snow. I find it amazing that it closes at the whiff of snow, especially as most of the teachers live near and the catchment area is mostly within walking distance. Most of our staff at work live way out of the area, and I'm only 5 mins walk away. So I've no excuse for not going in tomorrow if there's loads of snow. If Rosie's school is closed then she'll just have to come into work with me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 im very upset they have forecast this weather front coming in from the south west (so over me) and it starts off with us as rain and then turns to snow when it hits the midlands. So we get wet and everyone else gets the lovely snow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted February 7, 2007 Author Share Posted February 7, 2007 Sean is Martin's brother - and I'm sure they will have told their parents by now - haven't you Martin? Yes we have, we couldn't hold on so we told them AT 6. I never intended to not tell them latter than 7pm! I think my post was a bit unclear in what I meant! Oh well, NO SCHOOL TOMORROW! I'm not irresponsible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Good lad...I knew you would be sensible. Let's hope it does snow after all. You could always do a spot of revision if you get bored! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I'm not irresponsible! Not you, you 'nana!

Lesley Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Enjoy your day off tomorrow and try to get some of that homework done You can always come and do my ironing if you're bored. er........ and look after Rosie as well? It's a pity you don't live nearer to me Clare - I'd help out. Lauren and Jake live 2 minutes walk from school but if the teachers don't make it then I will be having them all day instead of just after school I'll be using up the spinning and weaving bits I've got saved up for them ready for half-term Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted February 7, 2007 Author Share Posted February 7, 2007 try to get some of that homework done No thanks Clare! If it does snow I'm going sledging on Oversley Hill. It's a steep hill and when it snows it is so much fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
