    Well done sexymouse!!!
    Fabulous news, huge congratulations from all of us. And what mudbath said!!!:D

    Long hard day at work, minimal flying - but off to France tomorrow! OH's car playing up, so will skip the Christmas market and go out for lunch and shopping not quite so far away. I've earmarked a restaurant I've heard very good things about. I think the rest of the week will have to be lettuce and water....

    One and a half days until the end of term - yay!

    :bdaycake:Happy birthday JayJay and Diva!!:bdaycake:


    It is never too late to become what you were always intended to be

    Monday list finished!!!

    I was just having a chat with my friend at the school carol concert. Her son plays the guitar (reluctantly!). He's 10. She's bought him a limited edition electric guitar for Christmas and has spent.......£650!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm afraid I couldn't hide my shock so she's gone off on one with me. £650 and he doesn't like the guitar!!!!!!

    Off to do a wash xx

    aaarrghhhhhh the ****ers never phoned back - waited well over an hour so I emailed them and told them to phone me tomorrow between 10 and 1 and if they dont then I am going to write to them like greenbee mentions.
    AM I right in doing that thing then where I send the letter (registered) and also send myself a copy which I dont open so I can then prove that I wrote it now (by the postmark date) or something ????

    Not that I am paranoid but you never know .......

    right I am going to put on me jammies and get a coffee and some chocolate nyom nyom nyom and do some knitting :)

    Greenbee's right! Definitely leaving!!! I'm resigning at the end of the Spring term (the earliest I can leave) and going back to supply where they appreciated me. Hope OH does well in his NQT year. How long does he have left to do?

    I thought that would be the answer :rotfl::rotfl:
    OH started his NQT year in August, will finish it in early July. One of his placement schools from last year at uni have hinted that he may be offered a full time job on a temporary contract (due to council staffing problems) with a view to making it permanent after a few years. We are keeping our fingers crossed.
