Oh, I think we should start with you and yet another illiterate sentence. But then if we did, you'd doubtless whinge and whine about 'bullying'.



Oh – so you actually WANT to bully some people. Dally the two-faced, eh – who'd a thunk it?



rlHere's something for you.rl

As I guessed: www.ljc.ea.argyll-bute.sch.uk/in ... y-hub.html Compare the tick-box, image over substance fantasy with the kids picture. Odd isn't it?

I do not whinge about bullying, just point out that it happens on here and usually derives from those who like to think of themselves as good little liberal minded souls.

But, yes people in public office who self-serve and waste resources on a grand scale with daft schemes should be removed from office either through the ballot box or, where they have executive office, by other means. Why should the public, who elect and pay them to provide a real service, be subjected to such contempt? It's corrupt and farcical. Trouble is most people haven't got the guts to stand up to them and expose them for what they are.

That reminds me, must get back to emailing our highways department over the pointless and hideous road signs they erected recently, have already had to fix twice due to my mocking them, etc and this week, since my last correspondence, have even re-sited one (in a more practical but even more pointless place). £3,000, if I recall, they wasted putting them up and about once a fortnight they have to get the contractors back after I have pointed out their deficiencies. Good to see public money being wisely spent when there are old folks needing care. But, hey, that's a different budget isn't it? That, of course, makes it alright.

What you "point out" is that you do not understand what you're waffling on about.

But it's good to know you want to 'ridicule and hound' people out of their jobs.

Bully.

ban has been lifted, and Dally is a tw@, that's not bullying, THAT IS FACT.

I'm a bit torn on this to be honest. I can see where the school are coming from in trying to protect their employees, but I think it could have been done in a better way. For a start by attacking the utterly rubbish reporting of it in that pathetic excuse for a newspaper rather than the child.

Then, if this girl is showing some initiative in setting up a blog etc then encourage it. Help her with the blog, show her how to set out a basic article, give her a quote for her blog putting the schools side of things. It might be the start of a brilliant journalistic career. Far too often we decry and put down our children's efforts instead of encouraging.

On the other hand quite what a 9 year old girl is doing with a phone (im assuming the pictures were taken off a camera phone) in school, I have no idea.

My word, what a clever little boy / girl we are.

Well bully for me and bully for you.

bless

Have any of you actually read the blog or just read the news story?

If you read the girls blog, it is very fair to be honest.
It is not a blog criticising her school dinners at all, it's a blog rating her school dinners on her own scoring system, taste, nutrition, no. of mouthfuls etc.

She also recieves comparisons from across the globe.

Quite a few of her ratings are rated as 10/10. To be honest she praises as many meals as she criticises.
It's obvious A&B council haven't read it either and have simply had a knee jerk reaction to a rag's headline.

At least they have decided they made a mistake and have allowed her to continue to take her pictures.

Well done A&B on being big enough to admit that they're in the wrong.

They'll learn more from the constructive criticism than from ignoring the girl

maybe the kids can ban the school from telling their parents how they are doing in class?

I think it's a great idea, all schools should encourage it, and the grading of lessons/learning outcomes, might shake a few people out of their comfy brogues!

I posted a link to the blog on the now defunct gay marriage thread - yeah I know it had buggerall to do with gay marriages but somehow it drifted onto school dinners, so yes, plenty of us have read the blog from the start.

As has been said, the council's ire should've been directed to pi[is[/is-poor reporting. What rag did it appear in BTW? I can hazard a guess at Sun, Star, Wail or Diana Express

Ah right, the main issue is some of these councils have remote locations and A&B along with Highlands have some of the most widespread locations in the country, is that they have to compete with the local chippy, fast food joint and burger van and it really wouldn't take a lot of defections to make a school lunch service unviable.

Also I think we have realised that the "you'll sit there till you've finished that" attitude has caused more problems that it cured.

Mind the way they work out the menus making every single meal nutritionally balanced rather than a balance across the week is bloody insane.

Do you care how petty this post makes you look?
