Ah, I know a good place down here, have a look see if they have anything you fancy. I know the sales blokey well and he will give you the heads-up on the genuine condition. http://www.harlequinmotorcompany.co.uk/cheers herbie had a quick look and the only 1 that caught my eye was the 325i but am looking for a slightly newer version but if i do have a change of mind the 2001 X BMW 3 SERIES 325 Ci Auto 2 Door Coupe TOPAZ BLUE METALLIC, 70000 Miles, @ £5,999 would be near what i'm after

Proper excited about this now..even fitted an extra gym session in to kill some time. Holland have drifted out to 3-1...I can't resist that as I think it's a bit of value. Sneijder to score anytime and holland to win 2-1 @ 25-1 Also took Holland + 0.5 @ 2.175 All for tiny sums, don't need the extra money to be happy if we win tonight You guys can keep Ms Brazil...Korea pwns all IMO. boldie stick a tenner on holland ftw for me ill ship it anyways you want it am all orange for tonight cmon the dutch, netherland,holland team

I like your idea to take him to the cinema. You have no idea how much he is being bullied 'off-line' and what kind of things might be happening to him. Most children who get bullied are very secretive about it. Give him a chance to open up to you in a comfortable an informal setting.
Telling his parents is probably a good idea but let him know if you plan to do that and get his involvement if you can. The more he is in control of how this is handled the better. I wrote an article a while back. It's aimed at parents but you might find it useful. It's on how to talk to your child about bullying.: http://www.bullyingfullstop.co.uk/html/bullying_advice_for_parents.htmlvery much this
