*is in and out this week*

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

Actually, I AM having fun, funnily enough! [img]eek.gif[/img] lol

I'm even considering becoming a classroom assistant. [img]cool.gif[/img]

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

Yep, we're just off out into the garden to let off a few whizz-bangs! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

<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.
