Oh good! [yawn] emoticon.

Anya yes, double trouble!

However, they are too young to be making a nuisance of themselves on GN - and too nice!

Rhett Butler's famous line comes to mind in 'Gone with the Wind'

'Gone with the Wind' - leaving behind the distinct aroma of old plimsolls

A local 'Academy' has- recently been sending some pupils home for not wearing 'regulation' shoes, or placing them in isolation!

I'm glad the rules weren't quite so strict when my daughters attended the same 'Academy' when it was just an ordinary Comprehensive school.

Why can't this thread be allowed to lie down and die peacefully? <sigh>

There could be a brisk rendition of 'Jerusalem'. And did those feet...etc.

And did those feet
In old plimsoll shoes. . . .
Oh no!!!

Is she hoping someone will offer her a great pair of substantial school shoes perhaps? What other reason can there be for her to come on here bleating about plimsolls?

And did those feet
In ancient dabs...

Why are you all so enjoying this thread?

I hope the child isn't really suffering. Worrying.

They are starting to fall apart
