no, and no. i would have clicked both 'no's but couldn't. CH wasn't even a faith school per se, and even CH did not teach anything of other faiths. it may have on paper but it really didn't. This, I believe, is the RS departments jurisdiction. my teachers were: squits - mrs mitra, 3rd form - mrs hig...

Hmm. I'm from Horsham. Hubby is from Tunbridge Wells. I would never, ever, ever live in either. House prices are over inflated and they're sooooo "provincial". I went to the TW post Remembrance Sunday Parade drinks in the TW Town Hall with the Mayor et al last year (Hubby's TA Unit were o...

True... How about a chat thread which is started every day and most of the chatter could stay in there? this was tried and it failed. firstly, some poor mug would have to trawl the forum 24/7 moving rediculous posts to the rediculous thread. it doesn't descend into general chit chat because there a...

Or alternatively, if I shaped my piggy bank like a Trident missile, Tony Blair would be falling over himself to shove billions of pounds into it.

Result.

Just a thought...

...which might help us keep organised... Threads have a habit of going off on a tangent, as discussed at length recently. How about getting the mods to colour such threads a vividly different colour so that one can see at a glance which threads are worth joining, and which have now descended into ge...

well if you think about it, CH is posh in every way except for the income of the pupil's family, and even then there are some definite posh parents. even the ones who aren't rich are often 'fallen from grace' rich families that played silly b*ggers with the stock market and lost half their cash. the...

Good question. Sure you can guess my views on that too. Think someone missed the point here (re the Army, Navy, Air Force). By investing in arms, my university is not backing our troops. The defence companies don't just make the kit needed for our boys, the vast majority goes overseas. Most of that ...
