Ranaldo Bairn Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Went to see the Lafontaines at a wee festival thing in Stirling on Saturday night, it was very poorly advertised, and the turnout was poor. Nonetheless, the band put on a great show, and invited myself and a few others up on stage for a laugh and bit of air guitar. Despite being in my mid 40's and a metalhead lifer, I was ridiculously happy at this turn of events. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the state schools not much cop then? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you are posh enough to consider sending your kids into a private school, what counts as posh looking? Was she wearing a tiara and full length ball gown? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd have enough content to lift from here to do them for a couple of years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is in Australia, a school there probably qualifies as posh for having things like a roof and running water. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's scary stuff so far. Glad that my Twitter and Facebook are private after I was bombarded with abuse after I dare commented on Rangers being a new team a few years ago. Amazing what some people will do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The area I live in has 3 private schools and 1 public so socio-economic factors dictate that the majority of the arsehole kids in the area will end up at the public school. It is a cracking big, modern school that is not long opened but there's too many dickheads in it going about asking for money and people's lunch. My boy had one of those rubber horse's head masks ripped off his head at Halloween and in the last couple of weeks has twice had a book knocked out of his hand, his drink bottle smashed and threatened to be pushed down the stairs. It came to a head last week when he lost the plot and stuck a kid in a headlock and today he clotheslined a kid for stealing someone else's mobile. I have to get him out before he ends up boxing his fellow pupils and/or I end up boxing their da's! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
