In honour of the spring sunshine, I put washing outside to dry and put cucumber in my gin and tonic.

Growing up I had to be pretty good at persuading farm animals to be where they were not. Experience shows larger animals are easier to move. One road-bound cow easier than 6 chickens or 8 piglets (actual events).

Therefore, a yak. Providing the shop has double door.

Watching a program on Normans.
Yesterday I tried explaining to French Club why so many of our words sound like French. Didn’t get much past ‘croissants are French’ before they were too amazed to continue.

Sometimes 8yos are very easy to amaze.

Same!

Recruiting is one of those exhausting-rewarding things. I like a full on day with a positive ending.

Please have a play. You are a raven. A creature of myth and legend... or just a big bird, your choice.
Eat the gods!
Dance with a Dracula!
Take Edgar Allan Poe to Alton Towers!
Ruin a Zumba class!
Drive the M4 w a mythic princess!
Get very lost & end up in the wrong game!

😂 Honestly! I watched one make a short flight. They definitely seem more suited to short ground-based distances…

They are very stylish birds!

Saw these splendid birds this morning. They are apparently Egyptian Geese.
They had a solid waddle on them.

i love this little website

I would put Jurassic World on again because it’s the good one where lots of rich baddies get crunched up.
But it’s not as much fun without 19yo yelling that it’s impossible to outrun a pyroclastic flow.

Mrbird, not a dog person, has just discovered flyball on Crufts.
It has brought him absolute joy. As it should.

That’s wonderful ❤️❤️

Oh, I’m sorry x

Thanks to a World Book Day/Easter play rehearsal combo, Jesus was arrested by SpongeBob SquarePants this afternoon.

A crop of miniature daffodils growing against a silver birch tree.

Cheeriness

We’ve just had that chat #Bluntchat

Yes, same. They were having the best time ever.

Not prawns! Treachery.

Every. Single. Wet break time.
I do love the joy of 30 kids belting it out though.

Rosalia was actually amazing. Blimey. #Brits

I do feel like it’s a betrayal, now you mention it!
Black beans have let me down.

The kids are watching the Brits.
I’m trying not to feel old.

Noooooo!
Menopause is increasing the pulses I can’t tolerate, which is nice.
I’m still pretending I’m not lactose intolerant so I can have a cheese and pickle sandwich sometimes.

I eat a lot of very boring lunches.
And crisps.

A lunch box with hummus peppers almonds walnuts tomato cucumber egg blueberries and chicken.

This pic of a lunch box from a healthy living site perfectly encapsulates my school lunch problems.
I’m vegetarian and I’m allergic to chickpeas. I work in a school where due to kids’ allergies we have a nut and egg ban.
Mmmmmm, cucumber.

Oh, yours is much worse!!

In bed, listening to the gentle sounds of rain and woodpeckers.

She’d probably be scared! She’s scared of magpies

Imagine how amazing that would look!
