Friday 9th February – HALF TERM is here…. already

Time with the #thomboys  – they really need a break from school and I’m always glad of it too.  No rushing, no lunch boxes to pack, no bags to pack,  no after school clubs, no prepping, signing,finding,shouting…. no getting up at stupid O’Clock .  If you’re going away, I hope it’s somewhere warmer, or you have good heating in your accommodation you’re spending time in.  Have a happy half term.

Brrrr, it’s been a week of cold.  Come on spring we need you.  I can do the hot coffees, and feel the need to eat pies and stodge (because it’s winter, right?) but we need the lighter mornings, and I need to wear my new Mac…

Today is national toothache day!  I hope you haven’t got one of these?  But I move on, it’s also national Pizza day… I hope you get one of these

​
Use our very own Pizza triangle, the independents do it better and it’s always fresh
