    That's amazing.

    I wasn't going to bother. Since you are I shall be a jolly witchy Agnes Nutter. If I remember.

    Tried this on newgirly's recommendation. It's a good one! I have fallen off the wagon again though and probably need to withdraw again!

    I am also finding the primary school wanting cash every week for something. Latest is uber expensive individual class photos, after buying full class photo a few months ago!

    My friend is thinking of returning to teaching and has been doing some observations in secondary schools and is shocked at the behaviour and workload. Brought it all back for me :(
