Barton Grange has a pretty big tropical fish section

How big do you want them to be?

I’ve dropped the spreadsheet and went full AI this time.

I can safely say that I neither know, or care, who the β€œcelebrities” are on Strictly Come Dancing. I’ve reached that point. Liberating.

All set for the last of the ASP/IDSR training days hosted by SIL for schools in Liverpool and the wider city region. Had to put on extra days as it was fully booked. Not had to invoke the tissues yet, but there is always time.

As impressed as I am with myself for having (just) sufficient eyesight and manual dexterity to make it, I’m completely in awe of the folk who design these things. The construction of the rest of the museum was hijacked by my daughter. She graciously left me Dippy.

Best TV ever.

Just feel accomplished with whatever you can do. You are already a better runner than the vast majority of the nation.

Absolutely. Took me 6 months of beating myself up not worry about the 5k part. That came later.

We’ve all been there. When in that situation, out of desperation to keep the streak, I try a word with as many of the missing possible letters as I can squeeze in. Doesn’t work if you are in β€œhard” though.

Awesome!

The best thing of all is that they don’t spit.

I once spoke on a panel which included two knights and a bishop. I introduced myself as a pawn.

Been a while. I make it space for 5 more…

I’ve been eyeing them up. Please let us know if it’s effective.

@sineadmc.bsky.social Hi Sinead. We spoke after your amazing talk the ASCL conference this year. Could we have a chat? Duncan

Quite right.

Thank goodness politics is now being done by grown ups.

You’d think so

Not as bad as 5 years apart. Maths GCSE and maths KS2 on same day.

Very handy, particularly when the previous 780 days of learning Japanese appears to have had no effect at all.

I really enjoyed Educated.

It’s not a word! It doesn’t exist in the singular.

Warmest thoughts to all those households with both KS2 and GCSE today

Today’s #wordle word isn’t a word in the singular. Outrageous.

You can only perjure yourself. At least in my experience.

Great alert from @chess.com β€œUse the horse”. Well done.
