The wife bought a pushbike about 4 months ago. It fell over earlier. She was not best pleased when I told her that was the farthest it had moved since she got it.

Mine bought a treadmill ,it's now a clothes horse

Quite possibly but that doesn't necessarily mean it's a bad thing.  Hope the bairns had a great time.

You're crying now; just wait 'til it's their last day at the high school and you realise you're also graduating - from "mum" into "granny" territory.

According to a mate.

They call it a prom but that's a step too far. It's a dance with pizza at school hall to celebrate finishing P7.

No limos to be seen!

She has a great night.

I remember the days when you finished school you just left, mabye some 'egging' but that was about it. Glad she enjoyed it, I've got two granddaughters just about to start school so no doubt I will get to experience their major schooling events.

There always seemed to be some kind of retribution on the last day of school at the place I went to. Someone thumped one of the teachers, and another did some kind of damage to one of their cars.

Our last day of secondary school, we wrecked our common room. Opened a tin of sardines and put it in the air vent (hoping that it would spend the summer holiday stinking the place out). Stole the cue ball from the pool table. Took the fuse out of the hi fi plug. 

Happy days.

I had a 'prom' type thing when I was at school. Was great.

Think you've missed out
