    I saw some plastic things in Poundstretcher to wind the wires round - 2 for a quid I think - but I was too mean to buy them.

    Dd2 nicked my twinkling lights on Sunday so I will not be twinkling this year.

    Ohhhh I bet that looks pretty Sal.

    DD1s history homework is to draw what she would imagine you'd see if looking through a periscope from a trench in WW1. Then back it up with an essay on what you've drawn and why.

    Her English is to write a film review (2000-2500 words) on "supersize me" the docudrama about mcdonalds.

    I wonder how she copes some days.

    Gosh 2000 words is a lot Pooky - think of the poor teacher that has to mark all of those as well :eek:

    (many of my essays at uni were shorter than that so you couldnt waffle apparently but I am sure its because my lecturers didnt like marking them all ;))

    Wow, that's more words than my university essays!

    History one's easy, a black page with starbursts. Or did they specify it had to be daytime?
