Sad news that is actually relevant to this topic. That 12 year old girl from Croydon who went missing last Friday, well they've found a body at the grandmother's house, and they've arrested the grandmother's boyfriend on suspicion of murder :(

[Galvanise_]

EDIT: Galvanise, regarding the assumption about your position, would it not be fair to say that women (often young) are overrepresented in the nursery / primary school level?

The vast majority of people working in Primary and Early Years Foundation stages are indeed female. The ages among the females vary. I wouldn't say its skewed towards young women. Most of the women I have worked with have actually been 35 and up. I've found that NQT's who tend to be younger work in Key Stage 2 whereas the old mother hen style teachers tend to work with Reception and Key Stage 1. I myself am a Year 2 teacher so I work with 6 and 7 year olds.

I do wonder how the perception of men working in a Primary environment will change. The percentage of male primary teachers is increasing year on year and the numbers accepted on to teaching courses is increasing too. Unfortunately, men tend to get promoted to leadership positions over women. I'm not sure whether this is because the women have less enthusiasm for management positions or whether it is positive-discrimination.

My ambitions are to get to Deputy Head (only if I can still have a class at the same time) and before I get too old, lecture the next generation of teachers at University. I don't want to be a 60 year old bloke chasing young children around a class.

I do wonder why the police haven't made it a matter of protocol to check last known location and the known residences of the missing person. Much time and money would have been saved in the cases where the family member was the abuser/murderer. I know that is no comfort to the family, but practically it makes sense.

Apparently they'd looked over the house 4 times, twice with sniffer dogs, before they found her.

I'm just waiting the night bus home from an awesome night out in London and I've encountered italians, romanians, kenyans, Germans and Lithuanians all at the same bus stop. The Olympics really do draw so many different people, it's kinda cool.

Another dream where I got banned from GAF! It was by a brand new mod who invented a rule.

I go on GAF too much, clearly.

Today is just going to be me playing NES games until my fingers bleed.

Lol what was the new rule?

[Suairyu]

Lol what was the new rule?

Oh, I can't remember. I just remember the seething sense of injustice.

Also, if I did ever get banned, I realised the only contact I'd have would be with Chinner. But what if he was dead? UK-GAF wouldn't be able to know I'm safe!

Are you not on the Gaf fb group? That's where a lot of banned people stay in touch

[Suairyu]

but facebook...

[Cindres]

I use the FB group to check when GAF goes down. If I can't get on I go straight there and someone's ALWAYS brought it up within a minute of it going down.

Other than that it's pretty pointless.

What about me?

[shorty_symd]

Going to walk down to Glasgow Centre and visit the book stores and Forbidden Planet ( such an overpriced place) for some Batman graphic novels. Hope the sunny weather stays all day as I won't be wearing a jacket.

[blahblah...blah]

Falling Edge you have a great body, your smartphone -> mirror pics are testament to that, but your smile is even better, I am not sure you'll like to hear that though :D, just combine both from now on: smile + bodypics FTW and yeah Timedog is huge, Devo looks better as a girl and I am so jelly because they have bars with pinball machines in their city.

Did Devolution used to be a man? Very confusing wording by sphinx.

[SteveWD40]

You have been banned for the following reason: Insulting other members is not acceptable, don't resort to name calling, it derails threads and is of poor character Date the ban will be lifted: 08-11-2012, 04:00 PM

Korey Banned

[Hot Coldman]

Welcome back. Thanks for taking out that prat, although I think you needn't have bothered- his number was up soon anyway. :P

[Salvadora]

Welcome back. Thanks for taking out that prat, although I think you needn't have bothered- his number was up soon anyway. :P

Korey has been doing that for a long, long time so I'm not so sure.

[Hot Coldman]

I dunno, he seemed waaaaaaaaay more blatant since the Olympics started. Not that I was keeping tabs on the guy :lol

[CHEEZMO™]

Welcome home, Steve :D

[runlikehell]

Welcome back dude!

I think I'm going to have to remove the last remaining family members I have as friends on Facebook. They keep sharing an image of the two men arrested on suspicion for the murder of that girl, calling them paedophiles and whatnot. So pathetic.

[SteveWD40]

Korey has been doing that for a long, long time so I'm not so sure.

Minsc talked about it like he had never heard of him before, but yes, he was far more offensively annoying during the Olympics, not sure how long his ban was for but robbing him of the ability to troll up the Olympics thread for the second week of the games was rather nice.

Edit: looks like he is still banned for now...

[Suairyu]

What about me?

Dude we haven't skyped in weeks I thought you broke up with me.

:(

[CHEEZMO™]

;-;

[Musha_Soturi]

Welcome back Steve, you're a proper hero mate!

[BGBW]

Well I suppose today marks the end of my London holiday. Spent a lot of it going around the Olympic houses for various countries. Visited the S.Korean house and saw some live magic from a rather funny chap called JK.

[fizzelopeguss]

Troll posters only grow bolder and bolder, especially if they think they're part of some kind of forum royalty.

Man where does Cheezmo find these bands, loving the tunes.

I think this is the first time anyone's ever commented on the links I post on FB, heh. I didn't think anyone ever clicks on half the shit I post.

I hate flat hunting with a passion. A serious passion.

I always open the link, but I'll turn it right off if it's shit. I like stuff I like.

I was gonna make a comment on facebook, but I feel weird referring to you by your real name for some reason.

[Suairyu]

A lost art

THere was nothing artful about the use of "cunt" in that post at all. Clearly not a UK-GAFer

[Mr. Sam]

I do like that ad though.

[CHEEZMO™]

Thou shall not be selfish, real nigga commandments
Know a billionaire he has everything but a fam
Guess how angry this man gets
Had so many bad chicks in his bed
Strange sex, same sex
Has addictions that are sadistic
Chain of events, habits
He puts cocaine on his prick and acts sick
Self-esteem needs boosting alcohol consumption
Nicotine fushion, some athletes juicing
Pastors quote biblical chapters, Psalms
All along he’s into bestiality porn
and it’s wrong, so I keep the Cali weed in the bong
And I'm strong, but the female anatomy got me sprung
And these women need shoes and baddest cars and condos
Fine clothes, and these fiends needs to get high, so they find dough
To mainline dope, and ya'll know

Literally just had the worst night out for about 3 years.

Start off round a friends place, few drinks, music, Olympics all good, naturally some of the guys can't handle their drink too well, I'm used to it, no issues.

We roll into town, hit a pretty decent bar have a drink, get some discounted shots, all is well. Decide to go to another not so decent bar, get knocked back for being 'a group of lads' comes with the territory so no problems there.

Everyone agrees to head to one of my favourite spots around, decent music, good choice of drinks, attractive woman and i know most of the door team from working with them so no problems getting in. Somehow on the way to the group decides they want to go to the WORST STRIPJOINT IN TOWN. Like, seriously, out of all the strip clubs urgh.

Needless to say left sharpish, ruined a mixed doner and am tucking myself into bed with a can of coke zero and broken dreams.

/story time.

[CHEEZMO™]

At least you didn't throw up all over your jeans inside someone's front room.

[Salvadora]

That's a tame bad night out compared to what I've experienced.

[3Sixty]

oh i've had bad bad

But not completely boring waste of time bad.

[Mr. Sam]

Welcome to my world.

[shorty_symd]

First of all, Welcome back Steve! :D You took one for the team and we are all truly grateful.

Cheezmo, ever walked through a sea of people while listening to "World's an Addiction"? Feels good man. Makes you ponder about life and stuff. In fact, listening to that whole fucking album while on a trek feels good.

My day has been quite fun actually. Had a glorious bagel for lunch and then bought me some books. Then headed to starbucks to meet up with a friend. I was early so I chatted up this incredibly attractive drama school teacher that was sadly taken. After that, headed to the Casino. didn't play much but I put in £4 on the roulette machine. Highest I got was £7.20 but my target was £10 so I continued trying my luck and ended up going down to 0. Continued chatting away to friend, watched people bet crazy money on the roulette table and tried terribly to think of the best way to win. eventually, we left and walked home.

btw, just finished reading "Lost at Sea" and somewhat enjoyed it. Completely different to Scott Pilgrim though. A lot more grim I think.

Would do if I had the means. Got nowt that can play music on the move :(

[Suairyu]

I still need to pick up "Lost At Sea". Looking much forward to "Seconds" next year.

[CHEEZMO™]

New Renard album released today :D

New Germany Germany album came out recently, too. Need to listen.

[Musha_Soturi]

On my way home from the Olympic mountain biking. Was an awesome day, really good atmosphere.

Really want to try and get some Paralympic tickets now, hopefully for any event at the Olympic park.

[Galvanise_]

Anyone heard of an Essex comedy act called 'Kunt and the Gang'? Cracks me up every time I see him, particularly if people don't know what to expect.

My favourite title of his is 'I'm wanking over a pornographic polaroid, of an ex-girlfriend who died', which just beats out 'Use my Arsehole as a Cunt'.

I love cheesy Casio keyboard songs.

'Perverts on the internet' is stupidly catchy. Myspace Tom lol.

[CHEEZMO™]

Fucksticks.

[Suairyu]

Fucksticks.
