    Thanks both.

    It is hard to get a decent picture of the cellophane and bow. I have three of these, all individual to the teachers.

    I would have made these anyway, so it is nice to be able to use what I do as a way to gather pictures to promote myself.

    Unexpected day off today as my tutee is poorly. Took my cousin to the big shopping centre for a coffee. We haven't been able to do it since I have been working again. It is the anniversary of his sister's death tomorrow. Two years has gone so quickly. She was 55 and died within four months of diagnosis. It was her mum that passed five months later, so my cousin struggles losing the last two closest family members. We have a family meal planned soon though, which will be nice for him.

    DD is on her school trip and not returning until after tea. That's left me with an unusually long day!

    Her school have said they can wear PE kit for the rest of the week so I got rid of her school uniform. Her school have chosen this year to change uniform, which will be another £500 to spend for the new blazers etc.
