O clock designed by Anne B

Anne made the O clock using a paper mache letter

painted with black Pebeo studio acrylic paint and then polished with silver patina the front of the O was stippled using a stipple sponge the outer O was highly polished and the wooden frame for the face of the O’clock was painted black with Pebeo Studio Acrylic paint lightly rubbed with a soft cloth the rim of the wooden frame was left black the frame was glued to the O and the clock mechanism attached

Every child in Scotland will have a “state minder”

July 9, 2014

I DO NOT WANT NOR DO I NEED A STATE MINDER FOR MY CHILDREN !!

AND YES I AM SHOUTING

I apologise to all my followers but I am outraged at this news

Normally my posts are about lainesworld projects etc that I have made but this has made my blood boil !

 

Writing in the Scotsman of how he penned a dystopian novel based around this very scenario of every child being assigned a government mentor, sociology and criminology lecturer at the University of Abertay Dundee Stuart Waiton writes, “Unfortunately, this dystopian future has arrived a little faster than I imagined, as last week the Scottish Government’s plan to give every child a state guardian from birth was launched.”

“This state-appointed overseer will be a specific, named individual, and every child will have one, from birth. The responsibility for creating this named guardian will fall on the heads of the health boards for the first five years of a child’s life, before being transferred to councils.”’

Thank you to everyone who visited Lainesworld on Sunday

It was super to see the children having fun crafting in the shop and to meet all the ‘wee inschy winchy spiders’ on the treasure hunt thank you for putting laines on the map.

Hope that the children and adults had as much fun as we did.

A huge thank you to all who bought a raffle and lucky boxes we will be sending a cheque to MNDS very soon.

Thank you to Anne and Meg for their help and support with the preparations leading up to Sunday.

The best thing for me was having my two girls at home helping mum in the shop just like old times
