Christmas and January Music Thread *Thread title edited by MNHQ*

Hi all,
Here's a new thread for the festive period - possibly including a bit of January if I'm away and unable to start another one in time. The old thread was making me nauseous.

I am a music teacher, so pretty busy athis the moment. I have just had results for 12 pupils' exams... 3 pass, 7 merit and 2 distinction. My DDs didn't do any this term, but have 9 concerts between them. Goo is 13 and plays the flute and piano. Rara is 10 and plays the cello and clarinet. What are you all up to musically?

It is difficult, I have name changed a few times and have to be careful.
Some of our children can be identified by anyone reading this, I was pulled up by school for something I posted, was obviously easily identified.
So, it's not just trolls we should look out for but people that might actually know us.
It was a report from someone on here that got me in trouble, not a regular poster, just somebody who saw it.

Thank goodness! And understandable!

raspberryrippleicecream · 19/12/2018 19:12

Thank goodness, I was starting to doubt everything!

woolleybear · 19/12/2018 19:11

Really? Crazy has been on here for a while, no?

cantkeepawayforever · 19/12/2018 19:08

I suspect that there are a number of us who have been reminded of privacy concerns through recent events on this thread, and perhaps would like to reduce what we share and / or have more identifying details deleted.

So crazy could simply be reducing her 'identifiability'.

squintsoftheworldunite · 19/12/2018 19:07

No crazy just didn’t like the idea of the trolls and wanted privacy back.

Just noticed that all of Crazy’s post have also been deleted from the NCO 2019 thread. What is going on?? Been away for a couple of weeks and it all seems to have gone slightly mad!

Trumpetboysmum · 18/12/2018 22:37

RomanyRoots · 18/12/2018 21:27

I don't get this she/he was on these threads for last few weeks and still posting now.

Wiifitmama · 18/12/2018 21:04

Was she a troll? If so, I would like to know as she is on another thread I am on (Oxbridge one) talking about a dd who is applying and also plays sport for GB.

RomanyRoots · 18/12/2018 20:49

folkmamma · 18/12/2018 20:29

rushes into thread and waves

Hope everyone's Christmas marathons are going well. I finish for the holidays in 4 days - yippee!! I am beyond exhausted and need to take some time for myself at the moment. Don't worry - if I do that, I will be fine. But we are also going to be away for New Year, potentially without internet access. If anyone else would like to start a January thread, feel free. Please understand, though, that I am taking a planned break for now. I am happy to chat with the many friends I've made here in person, via text etc.

Let me stress again... I am fine. We are all fine!

Bye for now. xxx
