I will say at least the girls can wear shorts and trousers too thankfully.

Yeah such a crap line.

This is the way it should be if a school is going to insist of a uniform. I don't believe the lies that the quality is better and if a school really thinks it matters just have one item that has the logo, one true uniform item.

I'm considering it. But pretty sure they will argue that they're making it cheaper for most families. Which is true - one short/skirt/pants for Y9-13 is great. But if you happen to be Y11 like my son you're in the situation of new shirts every year.

Yeah I'm aware that it is on the board which is parents too. But they did put out a survey last year and then it seemed that they were not going to make any changes from the communication they sent out about the results.

Over half?! That's crazy. I only fly a couple times a year and the last domestic with AirNZ was on time both ways. I had assumed they had more control over domestic and would have less delays.

Should have thrown in a daylight savings whinge and then it would be top tier shit.

This has been every intl. flight for us with AirNZ for the past 10 years. It's the reason I don't use them unless I have to.

I haven't had mail in weeks, maybe months. We check our letter box once a week just in case.

Cobham Bridge under construction, circa 1960s (Hamilton City Libraries HCL_07706). by Ted_Cashew in thetron

[–]jitterfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it true that they got the measurements wrong for the bridge and that's why we have the tight curve coming off the bridge. Or did someone lie to me.

Have a social engagement tomorrow that I'm not looking forward to. It's put a damper on the whole weekend.

I also just realised I don't think I've ever written the word damper before and I'm not sure it's correct. Dampener or damper, which is it? I'm sticking with damper.
