, # I mean I've said to him answer him back like you would but he , he , the thing is he just thumps them , he just thumps and kicks and hits # yeah but he don't get done , he doesn't get done , that is the problem , the kids don't , I've written a letter to Mr yesterday , why they were waiting for the games teacher he was hitting Geoffrey and he gave him a dead leg , kneeing him in the leg , he said before drama , he's got drama tomorrow he says he hates drama because the teacher takes no notice , he said one week Stuart was hitting me with a stick and the teacher just said calm down you boys , and he was being hit with a stick oh no and this I find totally disgusting and I feel like complaining about this , one of the teachers and I don't know whether its drama yeah I think it was drama and # they were , they were doing a play or something and it , it mentioned about er , erm , what did it mention ? , it was a bit rude any way this play and it oh it was on about an erection or something and Geoffrey said his trousers his new trousers were sticking out a bit peculiar # and the teacher said Geoffrey stop playing with yourself , now I think that's disgusting # I feel like complaining about that # that is just not on # he wasn't playing peculiar and the teacher say said something about , he was reading it out and the kids said oh what's his name then and she said he's names Geoff and they were all going ooh Geoff and she said , he says I think she does it on purpose # but he's proper pissed off , what can he do ? , because its not just him , its not just Stuart because she , cos Geoffrey says oh half the kids in the class are all bloody weird he said , they're supposed to be me friends he says there's only one kid in the class that doesn't join in and its Indipau # all the rest join in with Stuart , and Indipau says oh take no notice Geoff , don't let them get you down , but its only Indipau that's not , all the girls they all join in , bloody Colin who , he borrowed his computer that time , remember ? # he erm , he's given Stuart our phone number and Stuart's been shouting this , this is Geoff's phone number I mean he's , he's been telling every body our phone number , I says yeah you just let somebody ring us up and I'll bloody well be round their house like a shot if they phone , they # well # I know but if they just start # well that's right , I'm not having that # but Geoffrey says it , cos I says you gotta hit back you gotta do it , he says yes its all very well but its not just Stuart , its been Blankley ,Da ,Ja , erm Daniel its a load of them and they all get together its this Daniel bloke , bash his head in , I would really , I wish somebody I'll bloody threaten him , I really do you know your big mates , bloody , he's got no older brothers , I mean all your bloody six formers , I'm sure they could frighten the little twat # you just need to get him on his own away from the crowd # have written to Mr three times # well what good's that gonna do , he must of told # well what can I do ? # well he , I , I think he will leave # Geoffrey's only qualm is Indipau , he says if Indipau I'll come with me I'll go , I says well don't worry about Indipau , Indipau can look after himself , he says yeah but I like Indipau , I says yeah , but lets face of all the other kids in your class who you gonna be sorry to leave , he said none of them , I said well there you are then . # Did you have many form rows when you were at school ? # Its a big mistake when they let in , into that school , where did they used to go ? # Crown Hill its really gone down hill I think since they've let ra , I tell you what he ain't going there # not sending him there , rather send him to Judge # I'm not sending him there I'll have to get Geoff to tell you about the story of , you know erm drama he says is pretty bad because , I mean in drama you sort of mess about any way don't ya ? # and he , he just goes around thumping , kicking and , and going berserk during drama and the teacher just looks on and says calm down and I mean in view of the fact I've written to the school and complained about , but you'd think they would be keeping an eye and he hates drama so much and it , he's got drama tomorrow , if he has any trouble tomorrow morning I'm not sending him tomorrow afternoon I'm gonna start keeping him home and if they ask why I'm gonna say because you can't control your classes and you won't want to now # oh I'll have to ask Geoff if it was , I'm absolutely disgusted about that , I really am disgusted about that # I think I will # I think I will cos I'm pissed off , I tell you what , I mean I think , you've been alright throughout your school more or less haven't ya ? # but I'm most disgruntled the way Geoffrey's getting on , he's not had a single parents evening this year , you know normally you go back to school , you have one September , October which is always too soon # he's not had one # he's not had one # I'm gonna write , if that , if it was the drama teacher that said that I'm gonna write to her , I'm gonna put copy to Mr # write to him as well disgusting , as if you don't , you don't need that sort of aggravation from a teacher stirring up trouble like that making the kids making him a laughing stock , he does not need that , its just not on is it ? , and as he says I'm sure she does it on purpose . # I don't care # don't care , its not a good school any way , tell her to stuff it # well I want him to , I've had enough , I think its # I mean he's crying all the time , he burst into tears last night # he hates school , I mean , what can I do with him ?

, you were in Bristol at the time , er Stuart was the same , they used to publish what area would be cut off and for what time and for how long and you knew you would get cut off , sort of ten o'clock in the morning till three in the afternoon ,usu , four or five hours at a time wasn't it ? # no # yeah # no # well we had in the bank , we had calor gas lamps and when the power cut came we had to have the calor gas lamps on , and er , at night you'd get home and you knew what area was going off at what time and you used to have to rush round , I remember once , it was going off about six and it went off early , it went off about five instead , and I'd started cooking the tea , luckily got a gas cooker and this was at Abbott Road , it started # cooking the tea , I remember it was fish fingers and chips I was doing and er the dam lights all went out , you were only little and erm Lynsey er , she came round from next door because she started cooking her chips # and she said , she'd got an electric cooker , can I finish cooking me tea on your cooker , huh , said it went off earlier than we thought I mean it wasn't # it was disgusting how the held the country to ransom didn't they ?

# and they are excepting a lump sum from the Government and they're going to manage themselves and make a going concern of it as a business and any profits they get will go back to that hospital , well the community unit are opting out as well , they're hoping to opt out , but if Labour get in , they're gonna do away with all that and they want to undo all the one's that have opted out , I mean I dunno how the hell they're gonna do it # because I , the doctors I work for they have opted out , they are what they call it fund holding , they've got their own budget , they've got a , they've got a practice manager and its run as a business and they look at every thing and any profits that they get are ploughed back into the G P's surgery and er , and they improve the surgery facilities for the patience , and it will be a better service , but I mean how can Labour come in and then say right you're not doing that , how can they undo it # they can't undo it # oh # I know # mm I mean every Government does some good and some bad , but on the whole I think the Conservative have done good , because they've made more people home owners than ever before # enabled them to buy their Council houses , at er cheaper rate because they've lived in them a long time and its , its given a lot of people more independence , unemployment would of happened who ever was in power # it doesn't matter , they've not caused it # no # mm # no I hate it when each party calls each other blind , oh yes its , its better if you have us and were gonna do this and were gonna do that it gets on my nerves its really irritating # yeah # yeah , or # and the three days working week # that's right , that's right , the the bin men strike # all the # yeah # she didn't give in to 'em did she ?
