10 Days to Go!

We are in the middle of the move! The teachers desks have moved down to modular accomodation and we are currently living out of a few boxes!

You would think we would be on the "wind down" for Christmas, but its gung ho! with everything! The move, Discos, Prelims, Coursework and HMI coming in! Eventful times!

I think we are all desperate for the holidays to come!

10 to go!

In the spirit of adventure

I was walking the other day, and whilst walking I was thinking (simultaneously disproving the theory that men can't multi-task) I hadn't had a fantastic idea in ages ...

the wii is probably the biggest let down in a console ever - shall it ever reach the dizzy heights of the sega master system and Golden Axe. and then it hit me (walked straight into a door, proving the theory that men probably can't multi-task) and as I was casually trying to pretend i meant it I seen some of our young people playing the most addictive game since pogs.

So I have now invented the wii Chippy (also known as Jingles, tens etc ... )

An Overdue Update

Busy busy times in the Grammar of Hamilton - preparing for prelim exams, courseworks and parent's nights. Trying to squeeze in some extra time to shop for Chrimblemas Presento's!

Got the best news ever from the Geography Department who invited me on their trip to the USA! The trip is just absolutely outstanding, the different things that are in the itenerary are just out of this world. Will clearly strip the Family Trip to Butlin's '03 as "The Best Holiday" Ever!

Now taking suggestions for American themed songs for making up day tripper CD's!

Money Crisis!?

How can Spurs afford to pay £15 million to pay off Jaunde Ramos and more compenstation to Portsmouth for the services of Harry Redknapp and continue to function normally!

I hate these over paid footballers! If I was playing for Spurs (or anyone) I'd play for free.

On a totally unrelated topic: Yellow.

Incase you need me!

I'll be at the driving range!

And tomorrow I'll be down watching Big Samuel L. Jackson bringing some Hollywood flair to a windy, rain soaked, freezing, baltic Carnoustie Golf Course

Where's my hat!

A recommendation

Just finished two "good" books by Richard Pelzer and David Pelzer. Tough reading at times, but I think a must read for anyone in the teaching profession.

They are amongst the worst recorded Child Abuse cases in California and some of the reading really does open your eyes.

Ok, Time for Plan B!

God bless the interwebby as a communications tool! A gift was received in the accepting fashion of the Enter Shikari CD (from a pupil who would have got a mention if he hadn't wasted his time making people CDs and did his homework!)

It's improved the overall quality of my September weekend though!

Roll on 4 days of immortality!

We can breathe in space they just don't want us to escape

I must have spent at least two weeks looking for my Enter Shikari CD and still can't find it.

The moral of the story: Don't Move Out Your Parent's House

Anyone that wants to give me their copy, or make me a copy of theirs (seeing as I have paid for a copy already and would not be breaking copyright, would become my new best friend (but they would have to take me to the zoo as well))
