    Glad the school moves went well... must have been difficult, but children are great at adapting and I am sure they'll flourish. Late positive vibes heading your way!

    Very upsetting about the teacher in Leeds- shocking.

    Thanks Earthie and Lydia. They seem to want the very blood from your veins at this time of year.

    £79 on diesel. Just discovered that one of the not great teachers from the village school also works at the new school. Oh! The irony.

    I have been asked to do two days of summer school which is very MSE.

    DH spent £8 on knickers. His last pair split when he put them on.

    Enjoy your brummy break. We stayed in a hotel on way down to your neck of the woods and the children couldn't have been more excited! Think they thought that was the holiday!
