But the 4 days is drawing to a close. As Arti pointed out I had planned on doing nothing, but at least now I feel I have achieved something. Now I have 9 teaching days to go until I get a couple of weeks off, surely 9 days is ok?
Gardening on an Easter weekend. I am showing my age somewhat. We bought some bedding plants, herbs and a climber and planted them. Some weeding also took place, that was yesterday. Today has been hard work without the fun of new plants. We have bagged up 11 sacks of garden rubbish in the rather clever [...]
What a relief. It’s just a shame that I had such a hideous last couple of lessons.
Anyway, what really matters is that I made it to the gym, it’s been a while but I got there.
My plans for the next 4 days don’t include too much in the way of hard work but we’ll [...]
Don’t you just love them?
Lets just gather 70 people into a room and talk about nothing, lets achieve nothing, lets make a pointless change that no parent will notice.
Next time put it on a piece of paper.
I can’t bear all the hype.
20 something years ago I made it policy not to watch Dr Who, after all why get scared unnecessarily? If I ever couldn’t avoid it then I dealt with it, but never enjoyed it. Perhaps I just never ‘got it’.
Anyway I suspect I won’t be glued to my screen [...]
I did some!
Now this is so unusual for me that when I told a friend she really didn’t believe it.
Anyway, the other day I decided I would make some muffins and that finally happened today. I decided to go for one of the most unhealthy options of the lot – the ingredients included 3 snickers [...]
Tescos – times to go shopping throughout the week in rank order (Best to worst)
8.00pm Tuesdays
7.00pm Wednesdays
4.30pm Mondays
6.00pm Saturdays
1.15pm Sundays
Clearly this isn’t a comprehensive list, just a few times from my experience.
The moral of the story? Don’t go shopping on Sundays (unless you go straight after the morning service).
Why do parents think it’s ok to encourage their children that it’s fine not to work in my subject. I mean, I’m not stupid, I know it isn’t the most popular subject ever, but actually if their not constantly told RE is crap and worthless they actually quite enjoy some of it. The kid in [...]
The other day, before I went to see Acorn Antiques I went on a course for Assessment in RE. It was really good, excellent in fact. If you’re a teacher you will understand that this is quite something, usually the courses we are sent on are rather on the boring side. If you’re lucky you [...]
On Thursday we arrived at the Theatre Royal, Haymarket following high expectations to see Julie Walters in the role of Mrs Overall in Acorn Antiques – the Musical. It was brilliant, I loved every minute of it and it was fairly long – we left the theatre at 10.45, the performance had started at 7.45 [...]
