    Thanks @WinterWarrior. It's been a stressful week. Not just getting all the paperwork in order - I think I've been over-peopled. I normally do my own thing on Sundays but a friend arranged lunch out and an exhibition so no quiet time. I took myself off for the morning yesterday and I feel a lot less stressed now.

    You reminded me to call 16's college as I'm stumped on the kit he needs. There's too much choice!!

    So.....4 blackberry and apple crumbles made after breakfast with foraged fruit (and a few apples from over the back fence).

    The HT has been enrolled in college and is eligible for a bus pass and a lunch pass which will give him a credit of £2.50 each day. He is happy with the photo on his college lanyard and his covid flow test was negative. He has also been loaned a laptop by the college. I have a very happy HT.
