It’s that time again and although I had said I was going to plan for this I did my usual and didn’t plan the time to plan (see what I did there) and so when the 1st came around I was already deciding not to do it. I made up excuses to myself about looking…
As long as I can remember I have written, although like all things I do it has been on and off and never with conviction. This was until a few years ago when I started to do so more and more. I spend more time planning and making notes than actual writing but still I…
That time of year has finished again. Our favorite holiday in this house. Our kids have grown up and had kids of their own but this doesn’t stop us from celebrating Christmas like we always have.

This story seems to be making the rounds at the moment, a student in the US is raging at his teacher. Not sure what happened before one of the students turned on the camera but he seems to be taking offence at the way the teach is delivering the learning. Giving out packets of information…

I used to have kids or family…
