    Of you order online, don’t forget top cash back. Currys has 2% cashback on ovens just now for example. Better in your pocket than theirs Xx

    I've just looked at my online portfolio for college and my tutor has read my assignment already and given me feedback. She said "Another excellent assignment... well done. This unit is complete".

    There was also feedback on my school assessment and she said I'd worked well with the children and other staff, and had a good knowledge of the classroom displays.

    So I'm pleased with that :D :T.
