bought dd various new bits, including a backpack, all ready for secondary school in september. I let her use the bag on a guide weekend and have just found a rotten banana skin left in it, which has in turn destroyed a couple of books. I'll be deducting replacements from her pocket money but I'm livid. Dh and I go without so they can have nice things and she doesn't look after them. Argh!
