Secondary? Wondered what your %reserves are of income, do you do a 3 year plan and has your budget changed much this year?
Hope your foot is easier tomorrow.
Nope I'm Primary,
we've got no reserves as we're still clawing our way out of -ve balance, legacy from a c*** previous HT
Our budget is smaller this year as we've less children coming in, also have had to make some teaching staff redundant
sorry not much help!
Thanks my foot is easier todaynight splint due to arrive tomorrow so hopefully that will help too
been out to eat tonight with OH, a rare occurrence due to his BD but it was lovely, must go to bed now!!Go hopefully into each new day, enjoy something from every day no matter how small, you never know when it will be your last0 -
Having found a box of paperwork in the attic today that I figured must be up there, I now realise there must be another one, if not two. Not keeping on top of adminy stuff for 25 years is biting me on the b*m big time. I will feast on this Frog eventually, but it's taking an extra-ordinary amount of time.
Pigpen, I honestly don't know whether I think Dot suits the suit or the suit suits Dot. Either way, my heart did a little pitty pat when I saw that photograph. Fab.Better is good enough.0 -
Hiya everyone and welcome new people and returners :hello:
Pig-pen and Natty - hope you feeling better sooon (and anyone else needing 'get well' wishes.
Well - we had a beautiful day here today and I actually sat for a whole hour in the sunshine this morning, read the papers and drank tea.
What a luxury - and being as I f**ked my left knee at the weekend and it's hurt all week I don't even feel guilty !!
I then went to try to get car back from repairers and - well I am not going there as I don't want to get cross all over again - long story short I still haven't got it.
If it's gone I've done it or don't have it !

Morning to all
I've got the morning off work but instead of using it to do the cleaning I plan on sitting on my behind and drinking a hot coffee and reading my book.
Going to get all my jobs in later when I'm recharged.
It has been a great week for me joining you flyladies, normally the housework piles up ready for my day off fri or sat and I have loads to do and it gets me down.
I need to pop to the shop for some essentials after the first school run.Nov grocery challenge £77.22/£250
