Happy Birthday!
Dominique, fifteen today.

Problem
I give my Thursday evening group a list if ten irregular verbs to learn every week. The following week we do a test and they get ten more plus any errors. Three out of the four learn their verbs, the forth, no, so next week they've got sixteen. The boy who doesn't bother is really good in class but does nothing at all during the week. It's spoiling the ambiance a bit. These kids parent's are paying for extra lessons on top of their normal workload. I try to make things as interesting as possible for them. Sorry to moan, think I'll have to contact the parents.

Jody
is risking life and limb to bring reports right from the very eye of Typhoon Miffy. Not to be missed!!

Old Woman
I very rarely wear a skirt. I live in jeans and jean like trousers most of the time. Today I decided to put on a long skirt, fine. I had a lot of trouble reaching my feet to get my tights on! My back's quite stiff because of the cold weather. I got there in the end but it does make me feel old. Don't ask me why I don't have the same problem with socks

Rob's gone off to Bordeaux today,
there is a meeting of monument people to discuss the year ahead. As union representative he represents the 'workers'. Nothing much ever changes. The problem is it's a very foggy day. When I dropped him off in town this morning it was clear but by the time I got home it was not pleasant. I think he'd prefer to be driving himself. It's about two hours on the motorway, in normal conditions.

The Tetanus shot
That Christian had seems to have gone a bit wrong, firstly his arm swelled up and last night he had a migraine. I wonder if they give stronger doses in England?

What you've been waiting for
The dullest blog in the world is now back with,ahem, action packed adventures

When I buy
blogshares I always check the blog first, if I like it I buy it. Today I was quite shocked to pick out a name that I liked and to discover it was a hate blog. I might have expected porn or lots of swear words but not that at all. Poor creature, he (I presume it's a man) must be very unhappy. On the bright side I found a sweet little blog just started up, by a 13 year old!

Unkymoods
Perhaps you've noticed the little yellow cartoon that depicts my mood. Well, Mr. Unky is also a struggling cartoonist, go and have a look at his work

An Interesting quiz



How did they know that I worked in a bank in the 80's? I got this from Patch who got a much better score than me! (Well, he is a bit younger)
