"Osmosis" is a great way for many children (and adults) to learn. That's how I learn the best.

I agree - some things are learnt by osmosis. It isn't the only way. Some things are learnt best by practise. Sporting skills for example. All I have ever done (constantly) is ask Lizzie to share the secret of the way she has educated her children - for educate them she says she has done.

For someone who slags off teachers unmercifully she is remarkably reluctant to share her secrets. Her privilege of course - but I still believe it it selfish. But at least we now know it consists of taking them out of school, and then on trips. Oh yes! and osmosis.

Never mind she'll be back soon to tell us how she is organising a march for all of us to go on with banners against the Labour Government saying "Fuck You" as she said we all ought to do.

Oh yes and she is busy organising a folk festival in Torquay for people who are kept out of "top of the bill" spots by conspiracy.

Not that she is a conspiracy theorist of course. Heaven forfend.

And Lizzie you only bother me when you write unsubstantiated garbage. The problem is that is quite frequent.
