I missed getting my new timetable and thinking I had a free as per my old timetable missed a class altogether. The students obviously kept themselves to […]

Tom is home frequently to get his braces attended to. I didn’t want him to get braces, but now I am glad because they mean I see my son more than I would have. He’s been promoted since the last trip to a ‘workplace trainer’, which means he’ll be doing some extra study at his […]

Tonight we walked down to the shops to get stuff to make risotto (which was v.v.yummy by the way). On our way back through the park, I noticed how dark it was. It was only 5ish. We’d finished dinner and were watching a film by 7pm. It was totally dark and felt like 9! In […]
