Yesterday I talked a lot to my boys throughtout my 6 solid hours of teaching. Sometimes I remained on topic, but I spent a considerable part of the day explaining what Easter is and also explaining how you make a smartie shiny.

It was all very government adverty (until one of the boys told me that I was hot – tut tut tut). Anyway, I had a lovely day, then I went home ate smarties (despite the beeswax coating), cuddled my kitten and (finally) took delivery of my washer-dryer. I also watced gems tv, a truely horrible sky channel and dreamed about rubies. One day – little girl…

Tonight the boy and I are going to supper with my dad and I have managed to bribe the boy to drive me up north at the weekend to see my mummy, as the last time I saw her was New Year – IMAGINE!

I have bought her a wicked mothers day gift though. I can’t wait to see her face…
