...on the bike, the leathers or the tattoos, and I learnt today that I have been elected as a Parent Governor at my daughters school!   She started there in September, and there are many reasons why I am not happy with the way things are run, so when they asked for applications to the Board of Governors, I applied, not for one minute thinking that I would be successful in an election up against other so called 'normal' parents....   So, my faith in humanity has been a little bit restored today, and I hope that people voted me in because they wanted someone 'real'. Too often in middle class villages 'bikers' (amongst other groups) get looked down on, sneered at or shunned...well, this is for us! A Biking School Governor!   Happy Days!                                                                                                                                                                              

Well Done cissystar!   I was a Parent Governor at my kid's primary school, for about 6 years and I really enjoyed it. It gave me chance to see what they were doing in school as well as being able to help out and give valuable parent input!..They have since left school and one is a parent herself.. (jeez i feel old!! lol)   Enjoy and make sure you put them to rights                                                                                                                                                                                

Thanks Karey!   I intend to embrace the role.... and probably put the fear of god up the existing Governors lol.... xxx                                                                                                                                                                             

turn up with high revs and a cloud of smoke, tattoo's on show, full leathers, love and hate penned on the knuckles............... .......then talk in a really soft shy retiring voice and be on your best manners lol.......then if someone disagree's with you bamboozle them with a tirade of thesaurus alternatives to regular speech......wont know whats hit them lol   Well done, it will bring a certain common sense to these things, I went to a meeting at my daughters school with all the governers there....most of them were totally out of reality and coming out with some complete and utter nonsense......luckily the newer members had still retained some grip on reality....   Today the governess tomorrow downing street....lol
