After a three walk thursday, millie is trying to take up room on the sofa, and kate keeps moving her on. It is a battle of wits i think that will go on for a long long time, and experience tells me the dog will win!

Pure unadulterated fun.....

Kate and daniel spent a good 15 minutes just laughing hysterically at being on the swings.

Oh if only things stayed this much fun and life was this simple. Feeling low? go sit on a swing and remind yourself of what being a kid was all about!

So spent the weekend with our friends steve and debs, Dave and larry eating this piece of cow. it was late christmas party, and good fun was had by all. Kate copied Daniel all weekend ( she is learning the art of Mirroring and how that helps in the flirting world!)

And Steve and larry had to learn the hard way that you never ever bet against leon in a golf match...... they had to suffer the winning song and dance "peanut butter jelly time!" over and over again ......

So yet another full on day at work ( to be honest they all are at the mo) but had some wonderful wonderful feedback from so many parents about how inspired their children were about geography ever since i started teaching them! Normally I hate parents evenings, but blow me, parent after parent wanted to thank me, and told me that their little dude liked geography the most and wanted to do it for gcse, if i was their teacher. Even some bloke came up to me and said " I haven't booked an appointment, but just wanted to take this opportunity to say that you are one of the most inspiring teachers here, what you have done for our girl is out of this world, so thank you!"

i really welled up at this stage!

anyway.... it'll be back to normal tomorrow, perhaps it was the full moon that made everyone go crazy.

Worked all day today, started at school at 7.30am, taught every lesson, had meetings in both lunch and break, had a member of the department out so set work for their classes too, picked up kate, cooked dinner, washed up, marked 2 whole sets of year 8 books, now watching a geography video for tomorrow, plus it's year nines parent evening tomorrow after school and yet I still smiling........ have no idea why !

Got a big weekend of fun coming up with friends, having our second christmas.... so big roastie and plus a bit of rugby to watch.

May be thats it?

the weather at the beach was quite wild, and yet calm all in the same day. perfect for geographers with new cameras!
