Honest Saints Fan Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Well done JG! Been through a lot in the last 4 years between a huge blood loss with Catherine, Fraser being born 11 weeks early and a shitty cancer diagnosis! The worst part of it all is Fraser waking up at 5am every morning 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldest is away to turn 12 on Wednesday That means he was born in 2008, before this thread started. I'm going to have to take a point off. To ensure sporting integrity I am going to have to ask you for their dates of birth. ETA: I've misread your post. As you were.

ETA: I remember thinking as I came near the end "I must go back and change Mixu's name to his new one". Obviously I never did that as if I had have done I would have noticed you weren't even there under your old name...

Yes, it's usually very good, very "together". I suppose it's a happy topic, but all footballing and political differences are put aside. Another thread that falls into this category is the Depression thread, although the topic is not so happy and I suppose you don't venture in there unless you're depressed/seeking help. ETA: Another friendly thread is the Quiz thread. Edited June 7, 2020 by Jacksgranda 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I do read every post in the depression thread, not that I’m feeling down or needing help thankfully but you never know when a post might resonate with you and you can offer some advice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do that myself. Well I dip in and out, so I suppose I read them all at some point. I sometimes read it just to remind myself how lucky I am, which is probably not the right reason for reading it!

Adamski Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Has anyone had word from their child’s school about how they plan to work things in August? A friend of mine has been told that her son will be in 2 days/week. I’m guessing that’ll be quite standard, although I’m kind of hoping we might get more as the class sizes in my daughter’s school are pretty small. My partner and I both work full time. Not sure how we’ll work it if childcare facilities remain out of action. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how we’ll work it if childcare facilities remain out of action. Our local council (Perth & Kinross) had a poll on their Facebook last week asking if parents would prefer week on/week off or 2/3 days a week. The 2/3 days a week was comfortably the popular choice, so assume that's what we'll get. Not heard anything more than that though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
