Signs
There was a sign on my way round that wonderful M25 today. I had spent 2 1/2 hours in queues, moving at 20 miles an hour if I’m lucky when I saw the sign ‘Queues after next junction’.
REALLY???!!! I hadn’t noticed.
I wanted to pull my own nails out
I was just SO bored during 2 hours and 20 mins of invigilation today. The kids complain about the exams but at least they have something to do. The highlight was getting to leave the hall to ask someone about a paper which had been set.
I have 1 hour and 15 mins tomorrow and then [...]
Cake
I had half of my cake at breaktime today – it was lovely! I shall eat the rest tomorrow.
I have a pathetic cut on my first finger – to show you you would say it was nothing, but it hurts when playing badminton and yes I was awful tonight.
er… at badminton that is.
Confession
I talk to myself.
Well really it is more of a mutter. I was walking home from drinking wine with a friend (she has given me cake for tomorrow!) and I became aware that I had a pretty constant ‘chat’ going on with myself. Not loudly I hasten to add. I speak to myself on a [...]
Shopping Lists

Orange Juice. I want orange juice. I didn’t buy any.
I also stood in the wine aisle for a while with lots [...]
Taize (again)
I think that was a title not so long ago, anyway an update.
This evening was our first Taize service and it went really well, people made a lot of positive comments afterwards – which is nice. Chatting with the people who did much of the organising we thought we might try to make it an [...]
I’m such a tourist
We wandered around that magnificent city looking less than edukated.
Rather a pleasant couple of days with the bonus of a cooked brekkie to start the day (no baked beans for me please). I have been to Oxford lots of times but never really for more than eating, shopping and drinking (also one of the few [...]
Just off
For a weekend (if it can be that from Thursday to Saturday). We are going to Oxford to wander around being annoying tourists. Will say a bit more about it when I get back and therefore know more.
Just a note to Lynne about little bear
Of course if your name isn’t Lynne you can read it anyway!
Little bear was part of your Christmas pressie to me – he keeps me very happy by doing silly things around the place (he behaves much more badly when the boyf is around…).
You will be relieved
to learn that I succeeded in my mission to get pizza delivered yesterday. Very nice it was too.
I am rather enjoying half term but already wishing it was two weeks not one. Mornings are incredibly lazy afternoons less so and evenings somewhere in the middle.
