My son’s just started secondary school and tbh I’ve been worried sick about him as I remember bullying was rife when I was at school . He’s forbidden to take his phone to school for just that reason , I’m paranoid about it .

He's OK now though, Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buzzbomb Posted October 6, 2022 Report Share Posted October 6, 2022 When I was being bullied on my way home from school in about 1966 I started carrying a railway spike in my coat pocket. They came on, I pulled it out and asked who wanted to be first, and they decided to leave me alone, though some of us became friends later. Because Canadians are so friendly. Dad always said intelligent people talk things out, but mom said sometimes you have to give it back to them. ... and kevtaylor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dad always said intelligent people talk things out, but mom said sometimes you have to give it back to them. My lad moved to a City school at 14 1st phonecall was that he had a knife held to his throat in the lunch hall - police involved, next call he's been beaten up badly, 3rd and final call he's been beaten badly again but eventually lost his cool and bombed the bully out. Thankfully it ended there, god knows what made him so determined to go back every day - scared us to death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel your pain, been there and done it. Hopefully that's the end of it for you. I learned the hard way, kept forking out on a motor and in the long run I spent more than it was worth 3 fold and when I did sell it all the work I had done on it didn't add any value. Next motor I brought was nearly new and suffice to say you get what you pay for. 🤞 for you and the motor. ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

... Posted November 25, 2022 Report Share Posted November 25, 2022 Think this year fishing is over for me now..... On the last of my Night Shift tonight, done 3 weeks (cant complain though, half the work and double the pay)....work is manic at moment. Wife has an operation next week, so that's 4 weeks recovering, then Christmas. So new year I think it is..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carpbell3 Posted November 25, 2022 Report Share Posted November 25, 2022 I'm 50 50 on doing a bit of waggler fishing just at a day ticket type place not going out over winter can put you at a miss when starting back, I got big plans for KWP next year going up this weekend see how things are and season pass costs. Might even go full on gran pops and join the caravan club up there. Price of fuel is no joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
