šŸŽ‚ Sotonians milestones

Pilton has a great Pub & Skittles team.
A FB photo pops up to remind me of a great night there when I gate crashed their Xmas Party & played in a League Match!
I dont remember a damned thing about it!

Scores on the doors are mostly in. Kid Goat waiting on 2 BTEC RESULTS (expecting Merit minimum though) but she is chuffed to get 1 A*, 3 A, 2 B and a C so far. I have told her to get on the cider.

Congrats to the Kid goat

It has just occurred to me - I wonder how many pupils are really pissed off with their teacher assessed marks - legal cases? my teacher discriminated against me, my teacher hated me?

But these grades aren’t randomly made up; they’re based on evidence - mocks, past papers and questions, assignments that the student has done.

Well done to kid goat! MiniMap ā€˜completed’ GCSE and iGCSE this year and converted to old money from the numbers is 3A, 4B, 2C, No A*s but good results especially as she is still a ā€˜young’ 15 and a half. Congrats to all those getting results today, whatever the results, dont let it define you. You have the future who want to make it.

(Oh to be 16 again with the best still to come :wink: )

When I implored you to stay off the crack I did not mean ā€œjump on the smackā€.

I guess it’s true that you replace one addiction with another :wink:

Kid Goat got distinction in both Btecs so ended with equiv: 1 A*, 5 A, 2 B, 1 C.
On to 6th form where no doubt it will all go wrong and end in addiction and pregnancy.

Won’t they realise you are too old to be going there?

It’s OK he’ll be wearing a mask…and a Dutch Cap.

If there is one piece of advice I’d give her, once she’s finished with celebrating, is not to rest on her laurels.

After I did pretty well in my GCSEs, I was that proud of having them that forgot to enough work the year after. It cost me that year.

Brilliant stuff though Kid Goat. Well done from Chez Pap.

No chance of that. She’s been studying all day today to prep for Psychology. I think she may be adopted.

:dizzy_face: Don’t you remember?
Fuck you must be OLD.

This is something Juvenile Unit #1 tried to tell Juvenile Unit #2 for most of her childhood.

Fortunately, while Juvenile Unit #1 had adopted my evil at this point, Juvenile Unit #2 is a chip of the old family block looks-wise. There’s a look about us and she’s got it.

It clearly never got to her. She never asked us if she was adopted. We only found out about it because Juvenile Unit #1 thought it an amusing story from their childhood.

I’ll give her that.

You be lucky sir… Mini Map has now got IB Eng Lit homework on feminist poetry… for which she has little enthusiasm… and I have to admit I am struggling to encourage her :crazy_face:
