i'll give it a go... i have problem that i need help with. I have a student who has his own drivers licence from his country and wants to drive our car. we dont want him too and have been making excuses. He keeps suggesting that he practices but they drive on the other side of the road and we are scared. How do you tell him. what do you say. we dont want offend him and say he is a bad driver.
Excellent idea btw! :) - G.H.
You could tell him that your insurance company wont allow him to drive your car. Tina
What is the cheapest way to keep students warm in their rooms? We have some from hot countries and they are complaining of the cold already and its going to get colder soon. I don't want to give them those cheap blow heaters cause they cost to much to run and aren't that good. Does anyone have a good, cheap to run heater or another idea? Anita M
Try electric blankets from Big W. $29 each (for a single) and very low power draw. Ask them to make sure they are turned of each morning when they get out of bed. Also have good thick curtains to keep the cold out of the room and carpet or rugs on the floor. Good luck. Mandy.
