		<title>Parent communications</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of my favourite letters from a parent recently was discussing &#8216;miss understandings&#8217; &#8211; she HAD to become a teacher I think.

		<title>Saffron Walden</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just over a week ago we were looking for something to do to round off the holidays. Rather randomly we decided to go to Saffron Walden &#8211; the other option was Cambridge but we felt we should get up early to go there to make the most of it and the chances of getting up [...]]]></description>

		<title>Typo error &#8211; oops</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It has come to my attention that I didn&#8217;t spell Mr Mainwaring correctly, I had never thought about it before and had assumed it was simply Mr Mannering. I now understand the error of my ways due to a freakish google rating for my spelling of the word.
I urge you, searchers of the truth, to [...]]]></description>

		<title>No snow day</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The torment of hearing how many schools are closed in the area and still having to go in! Really quite something. I will say for my year 11s that they really are remarkably good at spreading rumours. The amount of times I had been told that lower school had been sent home (when I said [...]]]></description>

		<title>First day back survived</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It wasn&#8217;t even too bad to be honest. I&#8217;m not raving about it or anything like that and I really would like a few more snow days please &#8211; proper ones where you&#8217;re told before you get up that school is closed. My classroom is normally oven like it it&#8217;s hotness but today it really [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy New Year</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve just decided that I should blog more often, some might call it a New Year&#8217;s Resolution but I made those vaguely the other day and they mostly revolve around trying to keep the house more tidy. I could say I was inspired by NaBloPoMo but I am a couple of days late already so [...]]]></description>

		<title>My brother</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I wrote the following soonish after my last post, I didn&#8217;t feel ready to post it then but feel I want to now.
Yesterday my brother died. My older brother. There are lots of things I am thinking and I don&#8217;t really know where to start. I suppose firstly it is something that has been expected [...]]]></description>

		<title>Essex cats</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We bought our cats new collars months and months ago but they&#8217;ve sat packaged up and hidden away until today (the collars not the cats). I was tidying and came across them. I had forgotten the rather blingy &#8216;gold&#8217; buckle they had. Now we have Essex cats thinking they are the bees knees in their [...]]]></description>
