We're not moving to Holland. Cast your mind way back to when she wanted us to up sticks and move there. Well, that's all changed not because the boyf in Holland was dumped at the weekend via text, yes, she's a lovely girl. We reprimanded her about that, but she's 15 and there's not talking to a 15 year old. She has her eye on on some guy in her band.
I'm hoping its a teenage thing and that she doesn't treat people like this when she's older! So, now she's taken to hanging in Darndale where the band 'practice'. Not a great area at all, and somewhere she would be likely to get her head kicked in. Which is what nearly happened on Saturday evening. Remember this is all told from a 15 year old perspective, so she is prone to the odd bout of exaggeration.
She was walking with her 'crew', her words not mine, when some girls tried to hassle her about what she was wearing and were going to get her 'hopped on'. This does not mean they want to dance with her, rather do some unseemly things like pull her hair etc. Of course, then the trading of insults is going on, the kid is not behind the door in coming forward and throwing a few herself.

As it turns out, the girls were just looking for a fight, and only for Bidet, the guy is named after something you wipe your ass on, defended her she would have been dead meat or something equally descriptive. As a result of this mess, she 'missed' her last bus home and got a taxi arriving home at 2.30.
She then announced she was not going to Holland next week as she had band 'practice'. Yes, we were just going to waste the best part of 80 yo yos sending her over there and she was going to opt out. Also, myself and Mammy2 were looking forward to spending some time alone. If we had to drug her, she was going to Holland.
We gave her 2 options.
1) She went to Holland.
2) She stayed at home and studied for the whole weekend, either way she wasn't going near Darndale and her 'crew'.

Her crew, they sound like the oddest bunch of individuals with names like Bidet, Woodsie, Ste, Anto and Tarmac. Okay, maybe
I made up the last one, but do people not have normal names anymore. Or is it because they're in a band that they have to have
'cool' names?

As a result of her missing her last bus, some rules were put in place about what time she had to be home by etc. This was all agreed and she wouldn't need to get a taxi again. Last night, at around 12.15 the phone rings. She 'missed' the last bus, so we drove out to get her and explained how this was not happening again. She said she was sorry, that the bus driver just pulled off while she was getting on the bus. I have heard about those lunatic bus drivers who only drive around and never pick people up, they are mad alright?!
She proceeded to tell us what she got up to, mainly hangin' in each other's gaffs.
Its going to be a long summer.
