Challenge them and they back down. Every jobsworth has a bigger jobsworth boss, get onto them, tell them you are talking to the papers, the MP, Elvis about the given problem , they are shit scared of their own shadow in reality. In short, nanny only gets to do as she likes because the sheeple let her.Number 6noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-37646899150534526652010-06-15T12:16:59.084+01:002010-06-15T12:16:59.084+01:00It's a good start, that's for sure.

The teachers will not apply sun cream to the kids (ages 4-9 in this school) because of fear of being labelled kiddy fiddlers. Nor will they allow the kids to apply it themselves due to elf n'safety risk to little ones eyes.... Parents are not allowed to attend to their little ones during school hours either. Well whatever, I say, some sun is not the end of the world, and will no doubt do their Vitamin D levels some good.<br /><br />However, the school has put up large (needless to say, patronising) posters advising parents on safety in the sun for kids! It includes the very sage advice that young ones are especially vulnerable whilst out playing at school during lunch times...<br /><br />You can't make this shit up!

They didn't seem in the slightest bit interested in damage to the vehicle... It was all about the passenger injuries... If someone was hurt, I would have reported it at the time?Toy Trumpetnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-40581132257645843702010-06-15T10:44:32.850+01:002010-06-15T10:44:32.850+01:00Any step in the right direction should be encourag...<b>Any step in the right direction should be encouraged.</b>Garyhttp://www.campoamorgolf.infonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377446.post-38389758718542335082010-06-15T10:26:58.057+01:002010-06-15T10:26:58.057+01:00Ken,

Sadly f...Ken,<br />Your post hits the nail on the head. <br />Sadly for us, the nation has a whole generation that has been brainwashed by the 'elf'n'safety control freaks to be completely risk averse; I think it will be a long time before commonsense prevails again.....After all, you can't teach commonsense and I would say that commonsense is far less common today than it was.<br /><br />'Elf'n'safety is one of several coveralls that the jobsworth uses to control a gulible population, child safety is another, the war on terror another and the biggest one of all, the new false religion of climate change.<br /><br />I too hate the no win no fee industry; They cost us all dear in terms of over inflated insurance premiums as well as the social cost; events being cancelled because of the fear of being sued or prohibitively expensive public liability insurance.Tonk.noreply@blogger.com
