  • I for one don't hold a grudge.

    Life is to short and your a long time dead

    My hole life/world is my son and wife I'm proud of them both Tracey is right I don't have many friends as such but the friend I do have I would do anything for them I rang all my family with in 2 min of opening the results.

    Proud is my only fault, I even had tears running down my face on Saturday while talking to his teachers (yes poor boy goes to school on a Saturday) how well he had done and thanked them on taking the EXTRA time with him

    Well done the Clueless family. Better change your name, can't be Clueless after all to produce your son. Hope it goes well for him and he enjoys his school.

    This forum has different threads for different things, there is the Forkers one just for chat. Generally the people here like gardening, but there are other things going on in our lives that we like to chat about - and why not?

    My OH came from a mining family. His mother wanted him to get out of that so entered him for the 11 plus so he went to Grammar school then won a Scholarship for a private school then got a place in University and got a good degree in Physics. Had a good job, never looked back. I think it's harder for the young nowadays though.

  • Busy lizzie that is such a sweet story.

    my wife works so so hard to keep my son in private school works all hours

    example today she has gone to work a 8 until 2.30 and then back out at 6.30 to 8 am tomorrow yes I'm a househusband and have been since my son was born and by the way he was a IVF baby and we always said "he didn't ask to be born" so we do the best we can as I'm sure every parent does but sorry he is very dear and special to us ( four times and three years later on IVF)

    Oh Clueless he must be chuffed to bits getting the news! A huge well done from over here. I know how easy it is to be put off when dyslexia trips you up and to fall under the "thick" label and never want to push yourself to learn your real talents so I'm so very pleased to hear your son has not just pushed but marched through with his head held up high.

    Do let us know how he gets on! I bet you haven't stopped smiling!!

  • Oh Clueless, what a story, I have tears in my eyes too. Very best wishes and hugs to you and your family
