Parcel force have apparently attempted to deliver some stuff to me twice but not left any details of it either time (or how to rearrange delivery, give other instructions etc). Keep having to go through the vendor.
A bit of our guttering appears to have come loose and is currently spraying anyone who walk down the ginnel by the side of the house 👍
I'd argue that iplayer has the best interface out of all catch up/streaming services. It used to be even better but they changed it slightly which still annoys me.
An impossible combination of this AND "pulled myself up by my bootstraps"
This is just appalling. It's a fringe event yes but also one run by a large and powerful think tank.
I lived in an area with semi reg buses (you could get around with a bit of planning, not being in too much of a hurry, not out too late) but it was the cost that was a killer. £5 for a return to see my friend 20 years ago whereas in London it would have been free.
2 things. Watching Get Out in a north London cinema with a lot of audience response (in shouts/yells at the jumps, and general advice to characters) and seeing Midnight in Paris in the cinema that featured in the opening sequence and us all applauding.
I think this is true for the majority of English teachers at GCSE (part of your overall outcome includes which is easiest for me to plan for and which do I enjoy most/can get the kids to vaguely enjoy)
À propos of this - I don't have children so I can work at sch as needed. I no longer have SLT/HOD responsibilities. My commute to 30 mins per day. I'm no longer knackered, I don't need a nap on my commute, I don't get Sunday dread. It's a revelation but I know not everyone can do this.
Weekend 4 of no working from home: we did some house organising, had a drink at a neighbourhood bar, walked up a big hill with friends, and ate well.
