That makes sense ... alcohol is very intolerant of me so I only seldom have it now, can relate to what you're saying!
No less tired, less grumpy, less stressed.
^^^ I fear this relates more to working as a teacher and this particular time in the academic year and less to do with the odd tipple (quite aside from all the family management, cooking, cleaning, being on-call blah too).
Take care and keep looking forward to those holidays xStash busting 2014 45 / 60 (balls of yarn)!

Thanks Floppy.
Funny old day. Started with broken glasses and down to my last contacts...then a student not even from my class brought me a thankyou card and chocolates... £6 op thanks to PC.
NSD.
Moderation fees somewhere between £639 and £887 since the claim form is incomprehensible. Gross.0 -

Lovely to be appreciated but as you say, a bit strange ... was the student a year 11? Perhaps you performed an act of kind teacherness or encouragement over the years that the child has never forgotten?
Hope you get the glasses / contacts sorted, otherwise it doesn't mode too well for science experiments this week :eek:
Have a good one!Stash busting 2014 45 / 60 (balls of yarn)!

The student came to all my revision classes even when noone else did. Bless her.

Thank you. DD is much better. No alcohol is to make sure we can and to save money. I was daft with the specs and didnt keep them in their case. They were 6 or 7 years old.
Ugh. Work to do now.0 -

That's good!

:wave: ^^ that's bad to have to do that so late! Is it because you were shifting hay whilst the sun shines or such?
Hoe you get some rest xStash busting 2014 45 / 60 (balls of yarn)!
