Ooh err missus! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Sorry I haven't been around much (and sorry to those whose pm's I haven't yet replied to) but I've been really busy helping out at Will's school. They are having their 'Art Week' this week and I've been papier mach?-ing a huge tiger [img]eek.gif[/img] *lol*, gluing tissue paper onto a wire seahorse; laminating and cutting out autumn leaves and today I took 16 of his class to the local secondary school for an all day workshop including felt and bead making and a graphics class in which we did 3D Xmas tree cards and learnt how to make boxes without the aid of glue or scissors (or a safety net [img]wink.gif[/img] ). It's very, very interesting and rewarding but also very, very tiring. *yawns*

I'll try and catch up with pm's and posts next week so be patient with me, my lovelies. [img]graemlins/kiss.gif[/img]

I was wondering where you'd got to since you got back from your holiday [img]smile.gif[/img]

Sounds like you're having fun though, or does it? lol

So you're a teacher again? [img]wink.gif[/img]

Yep Ivana! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] Just for this week though but I do love it I must admit, especially the arty-farty stuff. I knew my art 'O' level would come in useful one day! [img]tongue.gif[/img] lol

That sounds like lots of fun.

I'm kind of going off topic here but are any of you doing the fireworks thing tonight?

The post buttons reminded me

<font size="3" face="Tempus sans ITC, Papyrus,Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">It's to celebrate [img]wink.gif[/img] the plot to blow up the Houses of Parliament by Guy Fawkes and his gang of reprobates (including my ancestor Sir Everard Digby - FACT!!!) in 1605 or thereabouts.
