I might go and see the film now!
And I intend to carpe diem………well you just have to don’t you!
Or alternatively, I’ll buy some gold fish.
the only thing stopping me is.. you can’t see who is in there!
put up a list like the other forums.
Gawd another one that brings back memories… good choice rubes :)
Trying to remember what word brings up entertainment centre when you type it :D
I love that song rubes………defnitely poetry in motion is our Diana Ross, gawd love them all.
I am surprised that the after school club just sent him off home on his own to be honest. Although as Pete says, he was 12. But afterschool clubs only cater for the 12 and under. They act in loco parentis until someone takes over. Someone should have stayed with the child until the parent could arrange for someone to pick him up.
The child’s safety comes first. The club needs to re-evaluate its procedures.
Actually, it seems it was a village youth club. Hmm… surely they must have the same kind of rules as an after school club?
Him
Would you please take me away
from this place
I cannot bear to see
the look upon your faces
And if there
is some kind of god
do you think he’s pleased
When he looks down on us
I wonder what he sees
Do you think
he’d think the things we do
are a waste of time
Maybe he’d think
we are getting on just fine
Do you think he’s skint
or financially secure
And come election time
I wonder who he’d vote forEver since he can remember people
have died in his good name
Long before that September
Long before hijacking planes
He’s lost the will he can’t decide
He doesn’t know who’s right or wrong
But there’s one thing that he’s sure
of this has been going on too longDo you think he’d drive
in his car without insurance
Now is he interesting
or do you think he’d bore us
Do you think
his favourite type of human
is caucasian
Do you reckon
he’s ever been done
for tax evasion
Do you think he’s any good
at remembering people’s names
Do you think he’s ever taken
smack or cocaine
I don’t imagine
he’s ever been suicidal
His favourite band
is Creedence Clearwater RevivalEver since he can remember people
have died in his good name
Long before that September
Long before hijacking planes
He’s lost the will he can’t decide
He doesn’t know who’s right or wrong
But there’s one thing that he’s sure
of this has been going on too longEver since he can remember people
have died in his good name
Long before that September
Long before hijacking planes
He’s lost the will he can’t decide
He doesn’t know who’s right or wrong
But there’s one thing that he’s sure
of this has been going on too longI think a lot of us used to walk a few miles a day to get to and from school. One school I went to I did the 3 mile round trip walking on the road cos there were no pavements, it was all country lanes, and I was 8 at the time. But there weren’t so many cars then, and the cars there were didn’t go so fast. I would no way let a child of mine walk that kind of distance on their own. Not these days.
Anti Dote
A word here and another there
The poison seeps like heavy fog
Through dense grey matter
That doesn’t.
Inherently foolish,
Candor a double edged sword.
For the true victim is
And will always be
The poisoner.©
Mr Petulant: I AM HATED FOR LOVING
I am hated for loving
I am hated for loving
Anonymous call, a poison pen
A brick in the small of the back again
I still don’t belong
To anyone – I am mine
And I am hated for loving
I am haunted for wanting
Anonymous call, a poison pen
A brick in the … ah …
A brick in the small of the back again
I still don’t belong
To anyone – I am mine
I am falling
With no-one to catch me
I am falling
And there’s still
No-one to catch me
Ah ..
Anonymous call, a poison pen
A brick in the … ah …
A brick in the small of the back again
I just don’t belong
To anywhere
I just don’t belong
Mmm …

He was 12, i’m pretty sure i was more than a mile or so from my parents house when i was 12. Has the world changed that much
since you were a child?
I guess you would have had to dodge horse drawn vehicles :D
I think 12 isn’t old enough to have road sense, not for boys anyway. Not sure where I read it, but am sure they did a study and 12 year old boys cannot judge distances and speed of oncoming traffic properly. There are loads more cars on the roads now, and in the dark, well a mile can seem a long long way when you are scared!
