    Morning

    Double brr. Dark too!

    Today will be mowstly finishing up after yesterdays marathon.

    Have to speak to a teacher today after Shorty got suspended for hitting a boy. The little sh*t had been reported previously for sending lewd pictures to her and requesting nude pictures?! I mean wtf?! But he hasn't relented and keeps opening multiple whatsapp/snapchat accounts to send abusive texts and she reacted. So I have to iron some things out. I think their reaction is OTT. I guess this is on the back of them clamping down on fighting. However, she has loads of merits and is in the 'top set' in each subject bar PE.

    Do you think I should say 'she wasn't fighting, she was giving him a good kicking'? 😁

    Anyway, she can be my assistant today and help finish off loft works.

    Much coffee needed. 1 is way too few.

    Morning!. Definitely Double Brrrr here too. Lots of screen scraping going on outside. Need car at 10am so hope a thaw is coming.

    Way to go Shorty! TBH just report the little runt direct to the police with the evidence he sent Shorty. I wouldn't mess about with school procedures. They'll do f'all and the kid will get off to do this again and possibly worse in the future.

    huzzah for shorty!!! as a kid my first response to bullying was the hardest punch in the face i could deliver, i wasn't heavy, but i had reach and speed, those days accepted some rough and tumble and kids tended not to be armed

    yeah, formal complaint to the school and also report it to the police

    a kid exhibiting that kind of sexual bullying/intimidation needs sorting out asap, not just for the sake of others, but also to try and change his behaviour before it's too late

    Morning

    -3 here but nice and sunny. So at some point it’s going to be the turbo, might need tights and gloves to use it though.

    As others have said, Pinno a word with the police or a call to social services/ safe guarding team would be my next move.

    Amongst his ramling incoherent thread titles, @sungod speaks sense. I suspect that early signs like that are not a good start to a young persons journey through life.

    Look at me, I started drinking my mums home made strawberry wine at age 12...

    Anyway, to lighten the mood, I decided that I'd WFH as it's cold and I have enough do do from here. Mrs HD tried to drag me to the gym but as there is no heating in an old mill I politly declined. The fire is on, doggy is happy and the espresso machine is to hand.

    I also got an offer of some oasis tickets in Cardif in July, unfortunatly I arrive back from a stag do on the same day so reluctantly declined which is a shame.

    i have made a fresh coffee to have with a truffle or two

    Morning peeps. Brrrr was it chilly first thing, not much warmer now tbh. Way to go Shorty. I suppose if she sent back pics of little grubs she'd get in trouble, pretty much agree with the above comments. Hi-light the issue and hopefully the disgusting little oik can be re-educated. If not another good kicking outside the school gates. Enjoy folks

    Too many bikes according to Mrs O.

    @pinno could I just ask if you don't mind, how old is shorty? Is this high school or primary as my grandson starts HS in September.

    The second child is a few years behind.

    As an aside, MrsHD got a Nespresso mixed pack with a ginseng espresso which I never fancied. I'm on my second and it's very nice!

    Good advice already been dished out on the Shorty front, beat me to it.

    Work is starting to perk up again, so busy working from the cave with the heaters blasting. Busy torturing numbers until the tell me what I want to hear.

    Get the Rozzers to call in on the runt and his parents. Might give him enough of a shock to moderate his behaviour.

    Nothing to add re the Bonnie, correction Shorty situation. I have a family member who works civilian mode for the polis in a multi agency coordination hub role, and that sort of shit gets reported via polis or social services or... lots and lots.

    A subzero sunny dry day, had a bulk load of firewood delivered, wondered how much if any the in recovery mode body would cope with shifting and stacking. Got most of it stacked away, prob 3-4 barrows worth left for tomorrow. The body did eventually say 'Enough'. Earned myself a nice glass or 2. 🥂

    Back from Hozzi after Dermatology appointment for my chemo rash. Finally! Told to stop taking some drugs and ointments and given more to replace those. Huzzah!

    Very nice female doctor and consultant. Dreamy. Especially as I was undressed down to me pants. 😉

    Also got a good hour and a bit walking despite the miserable weather. Tired but at least no back ache/pain this time.

    Listening to Old Harry's Game on the earpods. Love that comedy series.
