My just-finished high school baby has got booked on a driving charge and I have to take him to COURT on Tuesday. When do children stop giving you grief? I was fined seven shillings and sixpence (about 75 US cents) for failing to stop at a halt sign whilst riding my push bike. This was in 1954 when I was 11 years old - I had to include this offence on every "security" form that I had to complete during my time in the RAF (1959-73) and the Civil Service (1973-2003). On one occasion I forgot to do so and had to go to HQ and explain why I had forgotten! However, that was the one and only offence (civil or criminal) that I was ever charged with and the subsequent fifty three years have been "crime free" g -- Bruce Fletcher Stronsay, Orkney www.stronsay.co.uk/claremont (Remove teeth to reply) |

My just-finished high school baby has got booked on a driving charge and I have to take him to COURT on Tuesday. When do children stop giving you grief? regards, Annette Annette, If it is any encouragement to you, my son got picked up on a DWI on the Navy Base at age 17! His father had died a few months before, and he graduated from HS at 17 and a half. He was waiting to be 18 and to get in the Navy when this all happened. Since it was on Base, it was a Federal offense. Fotunately the judge was very fair, and sentenced Mike to 30 hours of community service, ( he painted the police station and it kept him out of mischief), and because he wasn't yet 18 he was told that if he kept a perfect record for the rest of the year, the records as a minor would be sealed, or expunged, when he was 18. It all turned out well,; he is now 42 years old, and has completed 24 years in service at this point. He will retire in a couple of years, and to my knowledge has never been in trouble again (but what does a Mom know?). Gillian |

My least favorite is a stitch - clipped turkey work; 'cause it's a "turkey
to work!" Also no-count cross-stitch - to me it's "no-account", and plain nasty to work with. Thanks for the question! Eva in Toasty Kent, WA, US "lewmew" . Just needed ONE more new topic to push the MI5 persecution guys off the page, so here it is. Question for the day: What is your LEAST favorite needlework technique? -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |
