Today I have:-

got up late
done my last Friday's teaching of the year
skipped lunch and had a very nice sunny bike ride
had a prolonged Pizza Express with some ex-colleagues
done a bit of on-line coaching
bumped into a former pupil on a chess-playing forum. We played several games in which I won the 15 min +10 sec per move game but he won all the 3 min for all moves games. My head is now spinning.
Watched HIGNFY.

And had a fairly significant beard cut.

I knew a word in French that Peli didn't know

Télécharger, télécharger, télécharger, télécharger, télécharger, télécharger, télécharger

But then again I should blooming well know it since I worked for 3 years in IT in France.

Oh the other good news, Peli came and picked me up from work, in the park in the sun and a wee ride with her back home next to the river, which was nice.

It has formally happened. My sister and her dispicable boyfriend have split up.

Now it's FSA Operation Take Care of Sis.

Good news about Sis.

Paper towels have arrived! New supplies were ordered a month ago, we ran out altogether three weeks ago, we've been drying our hands on our trousers for three weeks. Yay for paper towels!
