Oh and after nearly dying a couple of weeks ago a helmet that fits that I actually wear. I realised that looking like a bell end is probably better than being a part of a car crash.

Does anyone actually think wearing a bike helmet makes you look like a bell end these days? It's absolutely just the "done thing" these days as far as I can tell.

I used to as a kid, but now I don't even really think about it, it's just the done thing. Out here you'd cop a fine for not wearing one.

Biological washing powder works even better than quicklime. Makes the bones nice and shiny too.

Yeah, basically.They must have a device and the school has a limited list of acceptable devices that you then have to purchase through their nominated supplier.
The downside of having your kids go to a fee paying international school that your employer pays for is that you get bilked on literally everything else. Even the uniforms are multiples more expensive than regular clothes. Still, first world problems and that.

For some completely wrong reason I thought it was MaliA that had posted that. I was going to ask what happened to the families that could never start to afford things like that, but in your situation I guess that isn’t going to be an issue for parents.

From reading Beex, I don't think income is a barrier to the purchase of high end electrical equipment.

Is MrChris really falling for the "we need it to help with our homework" line?

They already have iPads, phones and a PS4, I'm not sure they're short on screens to waste time on (and 18 months ago we were like "they will never have phones and iPads, that's terrible parenting etc").
The school is insistent that it has to be a laptop that has touchscreen and stylus functionality (and one of 5 they've chosen) - the existing Samsung bricks we have for them to do their homework on aren't good enough apparently.

Yeah, basically.They must have a device and the school has a limited list of acceptable devices that you then have to purchase through their nominated supplier.
The downside of having your kids go to a fee paying international school that your employer pays for is that you get bilked on literally everything else. Even the uniforms are multiples more expensive than regular clothes. Still, first world problems and that.

For some completely wrong reason I thought it was MaliA that had posted that. I was going to ask what happened to the families that could never start to afford things like that, but in your situation I guess that isn’t going to be an issue for parents.


<Raises eyebrow>

Bascially, Mimi is calling both you and Mr Chris Cunts. And I'm totally on board with that.


From reading Beex, I don't think income is a barrier to the purchase of high end electrical equipment.

I beg to differ.

I know you’re being facetious, but to clarify, I thought a state school was insisting all pupils had specific, expensive electronic devices, and I was shocked and worried about it as I know plenty of parents that could in no way afford them.
