People referring to Arsenal as 'The' Arsenal.

 

But this is not a patch on people / the media calling Manchester City 'City'.

 

What about us, Stoke, Swansea, Norwich, Hull, Cardiff, Coventry, Birmingham, etc, etc.? So patronising. We all remember when they were Division 3 minnows (very recently) too.

all the teams you've listed are known how you've listed them though, there isn't another "hull" so they're just called "hull". if the media just said "manchester" it'd be much more annoying.

Have you got an F key at the top with a cross through a mousepad logo? Chances are you've accidentally turned the mousepad off.

Wait, wait... even worse than that is writing it as 'Citeh'

Receiving a letter form my 5 year old son's school advising us that following the recent height & weight measurements he is underweight. He is tall and slim and very active but because he doesn't fit into their 'average weights bracket' this apparently could be an issue and we should give them a call to discuss it (he is half a pound less than the average). They fail to take into account that he was born over two months early so has always been on the lean side.

They also fail to mention that he is 3cm taller than the average.

What purpose does this serve other than to needlessly try and worry parents?

Did you give written permission that the school could undertake these measurements? Even though your son is only five years old, he has rights and unknown adults shouldn't subject him to this invasion of privacy. Ask for their formal qualifications for inferring that your son is at risk.

Feel for you mate, we brought up five children successfully, but had problems with various schools, particularly where bullying no longer exists and was a figment of our imagination.

Basically unless your child fits the accepted template as designed by Ofsted, you will get problems.

Great idea. Forget about fattening up your skinny kid and concentrate on those keeping an eye out for children's welfare!

Feeling right sorry for myself, tore my ankle ligaments 3 and a half weeks ago and I'm already so impatient about not being able to exercise, longest I've gone without playing football/cricket probably in about 10 years.

 

how did you do that?

 

how long are you out for?
