Just been talking to next door neighbour. He sent an absent request to the head teacher of his 9 year old daughters school.
Evidently they are going to Dubai during the autumn half term. He explained the return flight does not land until the early hours of the Monday morning that the school starts back, and he requested she start back on the Tuesday.
He has just received a letter back stating his request is authorised.....on condition the daughter is back in school on
Monday by 1pmNo thought of flight delays, child being knackered, etc.
What a total head plonker. He is going to lose out though, as my neighbour has just agreed to chair the PTA, as nobody else will do it, which the head is aware of, and took part in the 'persuading' of my neighbour.
The head is shortly to receive an e-mail, telling him where to shove the PTA job, and a few other choice words.
Neighbour says "I would rather pay a fine"....followed by and including many other expletives !!!! Money is no object to him.....just paid nearly half a million for the house, and is also looking to buy the village pub.
Can't wait for him to tell me the response.
