Tomorrow
I just hope tomorrow goes more easily than the rest of the process has been. Must get some sleep.
Randomalities
WARNING- don’t expect to make sense of the following…
*that boiling water and salt really works on weeds – lots of dead weeds on my driveway now.
*people have been searching for – intercessions for tomorrow – biggest rabbit. If they had been searching at the same time that really would have been something.
*I have two days [...]
I have a date
The trauma will hopefully be over on Wednesday 30 June – just over 6 months after the offer was accepted. Even today it didn’t go smoothly, a man up the chain insisted he didn’t want to move until Friday next week (which is too late due to mortgages etc)
I have phoned various people to [...]
Logic
“Hi, we should be able to exchange for completion on Tuesday”
“OK, that’s fine”
2 hours later…
“We haven’t exchanged yet because your buyer still wants to move tomorrow”

Indeed overall you have to be mad – completely insane – to be a teacher [...]

Scout Fayre
We think Chris Barrie opened the event today. If it was that chap his judging of the fancy dress competition was very amusing, actually even if it wasn’t him the judging was still funny.
Having told the girls that they hadn’t made as much effort as the boys he then decided that that the girls who [...]
Stress
They say moving house is one of the most stressful things you can do and I am beginning to realise that it’s true. I still haven’t exchanged contracts which means that moving on Fiday is looking very dodgy. We have however come to an agreement whereby I accept I am paying for a new hot [...]
Fathers’ Day
I posted his card without injury and will see whether Royal Mail delivered it punctually.
