Ghostly Guitars Maths and Bolt Cutters

More strange photos that Jack has taken as part of his Art IGCSE project.

I think he knows what he's doing. But what do I know? Art is not my thing.Unfortunately, neither is Maths. Hence, Jamie taking a Maths lesson on Prime Numbers. What are they again?

Are you saying that you don't KNOW, Mum?
Moving on...
Jamie's bike was vandalised by someone, with a pair of bolt cutters, at the station last week. He got out of the train at midnight after work, one night last week, to discover someone had cut through his bike lock and totally trashed his bike.
He is having to walk home from the station when he's on lates at the moment, which means a mile through rain, sleet and whatever else the weather throws at him late at night. Because he declined my offer to stay awake and come and pick him up.
He's a good husband letting us have the car for our purposes so often, even though it means a long walk, train and bus to get to work. If only the people who vandalised his bike knew how hard he works and what the bike, which had been his father's, meant to him.

Oh I'm so sorry that happened to Jamie's bike. People can be so cruel. Praying for Jamie and the people who vandalized it. Jamie sounds like a sweet husband!

And, I had to let my husband take over math this year. And the kid is just in Algebra 1! Oh well, I can teach Shakespeare and he can't. We all have our strengths. Who cares if I can't do math. :)

Love the photo of Jack looking at you like you are growing a second head. LOL
I'm so sorry about Jamie's bike. He does sound like a sweet hubby for doing the public transport for you.

Sorry to hear about Jaimies bike, unfortunately I think the type of person/people who would do something like would still do it even if they knew how much it meant to the person who owned.

I'm so sorry to hear about the bike. That's awful.... Is it fixable?

Romany said...

No, Cynthia, it was completely smashed. We had to buy another one.

Jack's pictures are interesting.

That is horrible about Jamie's bike. People can be so horrible and thoughtless.
