Dunno why not babe ~ Summer Camps would be a winner I would have thought. Either day camps like the one shown or those where you pack the kids off for the whole holiday and visit them over a weekend.
I suggested the THW might like to go fruit picking to earn some spondoolicks for the up-coming university expenses but she replied that she was "not a bloody Romanian". According to the Farming Today she could be earning £100 a day in Hereford with accommodation provided.
In fact I spent my summer break doing just that back in my RAF training days. Earned more picking apples for Bulmers in a month than the RAF paid me in a year.

MM dropped in to a local Travel Lodge, CV in hand, to ask if they had any jobs going?
They were actually interviewing that day for a vacancy as it happens, so invited her in straight away. eeek:
She's just had a phone call to say she's got the job (weekends cleaning the rooms) and starts this Saturday. eeek:
-
SHe needs some practice. Maybe she could clean her own room, like eveilgrin:

I know. Unbelievable in'it? eeek:
Some poor buggars apply for hundreds of jobs, and stay unemployed for years...including one or two in here sadly cry:, and she just walks in off the street after having dropped in at one garden centre en route to leave a CV, and she gets the job!
I know it's not a fantastic job, but she is one happy teddy.
Trouble is, Growler jnr's now vacant job post IS going to advertised this coming weekend.
Bloody typical. ::)
Zoo is only seasonal, where as TL is permanent albeit only weekends.
She'll no doubt be getting herself into a lather now. ::)

Great stuff Growler. I hope she's as pleased as Punch

Madam's school report came through the post yesterday ..addressed to me naturally.
A4 brown envelope sealed at the back with some very dodgy sellotape work rubschin:
Upon enquiring as to whether The Brat had opened it I was met with the usual protestations of injustice, you never believe me etc etc etc .
So I left it.
A few hours later I went to get something out of my bedside cabinet....and noticed that stuff had been taken out.
"What were you after from my bedside table " I asked her
"Nuffink , Jeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzz " she says .." I just needed some sellotape " doh:

I though the schools had all finished but this morning at the one opposite it was business as usual.
Well nearly, there were lots of flowers being carried, presumably for the teachers.
Then at kicking out time a pink stretched limo pulls up outside. The mother and grandmother start video-recording the limo.
What the hell is happening - I know about school proms etc, but this is a PRIMARY school!

Latest American fad to hit the UK.
Schools local to here have this "Graduation" .... Primary school children dressed up. Boys in hired tuxedos, girls made up to the nines and wearing clothes you wouldn't believe. And then the parents wonderwhy the little darlings get attacked. Gets even worse when they finish their GCSEs. Aged 15 and the teachers organised the party at a local night club for them. £30 per kid and all the booze you could want. The management called the police in the end.

MM actually started today. I thought it was a H&S course she was doing. ::)
Todays report:
Puke all over 1 bed. sick2:
Bog completely ripped out of the floor with water gushing from it.
Occupant apparently complained that the bog was faulty this morning, and received a full refund.

Appartently, some east European family visited fairly recently, and they departed with the rremote control for the tv, the shower curtain, all the linen and pillows, the kettle and all the cups and saucers spoons etc. eeek:

Having owned and run a pub that offered B&B I could tell you things to make your hair curl ~ but let the child find out for herself.
Meanwhile the report in from SWWLTBO is that the THW is not impressed with Leicester University ~ at least I assume that is what "Low standards and an absolute shithole" means.
Ah well .... only another half dozen or so to visit during this summer. whistle:

Remind me what she is applying to do?

Geology ~ but is open to suggestions of Earth Sciences specialising in Volcanology.
Much will ultimately depend on her results in Physics and Maths I suspect.
Yes she has that list thanks ~ and another similar but for the subjects she is interested in.
SWWLTBO has already ruled out St Andrews and Durham.
