Should be at at college now. Went for bus at 10:45. No sign of any so gave up hope at 11:15. You will all just have to educate me instead

'I had a good intentions' hmmm

Too busy eating, that's your problem, any excuse to be on here.....Isn't there another bus ? Have you got a bicycle.?

To be honset her teaching methods leave a lot to be desired.

2 + 2 = 4 1066 - Battle of Hastings 'Impudent Strumpet' - Othello There you go that's Maths, History and English covered :o) Helenxxx

Oops. It was going to be just the one intention but must have changed my mind. I'll fix it

I was only in for the hour. No point getting there half way through. It's The Nun's Priest's Tale by Chaucer. Commece teaching now.

I know about nuns Daniel, went to a convent...

But was it in the 14th Century?

Not that old....

;-) I'll just listen to my music for now. Maybe have some dinner. Haven't eaten for ages.

Oh! I did The Nun's Priest's Tale for O Level - doubt I could make head nor tail of old English now - or has yours been 'translated' ? Chaucer was born in the 1300's - so I would make a guess at ...erm...14th century LOL Mags x P.S Don't your legs work then?

Yeah but Fred they say that too. I chose to be there. They can chuck me out anytime. I'm not getting paid for it. And anyway, I set off 30 mins before start of the lesson.

It's 2 and a half miles away. Time I walked it would be time for me to come home again. Chaucer is still in olde English, with good olde Chanutecleer. 'His coomb was redder than the fyn coral, And batiled as it were a castel wal; His byle was blak, and as the jeet it shoon; Lyk asure were his leggs and his toon; His nayles witter than the lylye flour, And lyk the burned gold was his colour'

I'll educate you.... ;0) xx

Fred I'll set the midgies on you....poor boy needs his lunch now...the little skiver....Get up earlier tomorrow and you don't need all that breakfast.... Great Aunt polly....

Bec !!! Put those...erm, that equipment away. The boy needs to learn responsibility, not play. You tell him Fred. But please, if you want him to take you seriously, lose the cork akubra (hat) first. lol !!

Not that I really have to explain this, but I will. I left here at 10:45 to depart via bus to the college, a 10 minute journey away. The buses are said to be every 10 minutes. Great. This will be no different to any other day. Or so I thought! I gave it a good half hour but still no buses came; I did not even see one making its return journey. What woe betides me! Here I was, standing a wet bus stop with the lesson starting in a matter of seconds. 'Should I walk and turn up half way through the lesson?' I mused. Thoughts ran through my mind with great speed. The predicament I found myself in caused immense strive within my inner most soul. Alas, it would not be worth it! I turned, and hastily made my way out of the dripping shelter and headed off to my abode. It was an executive and wise decision which I was forced to take. Indeed, knowing full well that I could learn the final few pages of text was not beyond my ken. This is the reason I find myself here today and this is the reason why later, I shall play catch up with my learning and leave it not to time nor bus to dictate my state of education.

my gabber is well flasted now, don't know of a reply to this.....!

You can't fire me! I quit! PS: You shouldn't asume anything. Nothing should be left to chance. I hope in the short time I worked for you I taught you that much at least.
