i see we have now realised that sport and competition is good for the younger generation and it would be good to include it in schools rather than the medals for all approach..................no shoite! perhaps we will stop the sale of the playing fields and invested in the future of sport at grass roots level.........
So we've been selling school playing fields for 15 years but our Olympic medal tally has steadilly increased. Seems like a good plan to me. Let the lazy kids get fat and spend the money on those that want to win.
The "lazy kids" are the ones who can't be bothered to listen in class, read the books, do the homework, or try in the exams - usually because they prefer to spend their time playing football and running about.
sadly its got past that now... they are the ones sat at home morbidly obese playing x-box. I find it genuinely disgusting to see how many 6 and 7 year olds are disgustingly fat, do the parents not realise how neglectful it makes them look? I saw a kid today, couldn't have been any more than five years old with a serious spare tyre. yup, munching away on a mars bar....
I blame my genes, I have two Kitkats in one front pocket, a sherbet-dip in the other and some money for a quarter of Pips in the back one. It's a shame I'm too fat to get them out (I am not bad at sports, I have clumsy child syndrome)
Yes indeed, but my comment was about the definition of "lazy". As the word was used in a previous post, even a child who is dedicated and hard-working to the point of obsession, and very skinny, could still fall within the description "lazy". I disagreed with that.
Mumma says "lazy is as lazy does..............nothing" I'm just off to play ping pong with my Jenny :smile:
