Classes, Inheritance - Stupid lazy question

[Paul Gresham]

Hi,
This is stupid and lazy of me, I have looked through the docs, but I think
my brain is fried today, I just couldn't see it ... when I have a sub-class
with an overridden function/method how do I call the same function/method in
the parent ?

i.e.

class lazy():
    __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name

    fired(self):
        print 'You are fired %s' % self.name

class paul(lazy):
    __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name  # <---- ?????
        self.april_pay = 0

    fired(self):
        print 'Here's a box, collect the things from your desk'
        lazy.fired(self) # <--- ??????

The thing I'm just not clear about is the __init__ in my subclass, I want to
do an additional initialisation, without having to the whole init from the
parent class. I think what I am doing is kindof close ... but just want to
know the real way to do this !!

Sorry I've just really lost the plot today!

Thanks guys
Paul
