Pressure is abating...

Got flu last Saturday and spent Sunday and Monday morning in bed, went in to work for the afternoon and drained myself so that I ended up in bed for two more days. Eventually got back to work for the start of the exams only to find year 10 couldn't do the exam I set them and had to work till about 4am to get another one written. Serious paracetemol and codeine phosphate assistance has seen me through this weekend and I am just about on my feet again. Keep coughing and tomorrow the last exams see year 10 having a go at the re-write so fingers crossed. We have to try to get them to pass but one questions whether they really deserve to. Anyway, after this it will be a little marking left and as the reports are mostly written, it should be a cruise through to the end of the term next week. Amy is in for a small op on 29th and the 30th is parents' day. Then it's back to the dole office to sign on and then search for a Renault Espace or something to get us up to France.

Happy father's day dad. I didn't give it much thought I confess, but I did get a card from Amy that she made at school so I was happy with that. Nice to catch up on the blogs but they disappear faster than I can read them at times. Anyway, second half of delayed transmission on the box so, allez la France allez, allez la France allez...
