hi all.
Catch up of last few days
Monday 8am - virus warning onlappy at home - pressed wrong button, deleted system file (whoops), lappy dead.:eek:
Monday 8.30 - car only just started :eek:- battery sludgy, but got to work
4.30 - car battery utterly dead.:eek: Lovely colleague gave me a jump start and lent me his leads so I could take them up to the school where I teach at night in case it didn't start when I finished at 9pm (luckily it did).
Battery charged overnight.
Tuesday
rewarded lovely colleague with a big bar of choccy
Fab IT apprentice took my dead lappy off me and fixed it that afternoon(I'm going to stick a tenner in an envelope for him when he is back later in the week, it wasn't something I could have done and I'm a bit savvy on re-loading stuff)
Went to teach Tuesday night, crawled in around 9.30
Today
Work all day, got a text first thing from ex to say he has supply work, so I whizzed to see Charlie for half an hour over lunch to play tennis with him in the garden
Am at work still (but in my own time now so no problem with the internet police :rolleyes:) doing teaching prep for next few weeks before I start invigilating at 6.30 until 8.
Fate threw me a big pile of poo with that lot but I hurled it straight back:rotfl:
