Just in case she got lucky and is in the one school that still goes to the pub.

It is pretty typical of me to be bumbling around in a cupboard long after everyone else has moved 😂

I came to rescue you! I am used to finding odd things in cupboards! Rats, mice, fellow teachers...

I've just caught up - glad the cupboard proves useful when the staffroom is shut. It suits me too to be rambling away at the ether Grin

Back in here again😂

MrsAD I've also signed up. I'll be putting some runs in to make up the miles. I tried to do it in 2019 but was pregnant by April so only got to about 600 miles. It is a great challenge.

Wow another republic filledShock

Medra hope you feel better very soon!

Doing planning today and actually on a roll with it now! Hopefully, it translates well next week when delivered.

Still sneezing and throat is sore but not too bad.

Ended up going to bed early as planned but got woken by fireworks Angry

Had a few family members messaging saying 'oh, are you still on holiday next week then'. Then they are surprised when I tell them that no, I will be in school, teaching full time, online plus everything else.

Wouldn't surprise me : it's the one bit in the SAGE minutes released yesterday that causes DfE no real hassle.

My head won't like it. He uttered the infamous 'over my dead body' about students wearing masks in lessons.

Us for ourselves will need at least a quid in the meter for this one.

Us4Them are going to lose their shit. Muzzling kids etc etc.

Piggywaspushed · 01/01/2021 13:31

Well ,judging by Twitter there are only about 12 of them now.

noblegiraffe · 01/01/2021 13:33

They've banded together with another group. A Faragey anti-lockdown one.

starrynight19 · 01/01/2021 13:33

Just seen the DFE latest Facebook post about returns to school and a lady on there says she caught covid in school and brought it home to her husband who has now passed away Sad

Hercwasonasnowball · 01/01/2021 13:37

Riga looks like I'm going to have to have an odd conversation with my head along the lines of please can they take their masks off to speak to me because I lip read A LOT. I generally hide my terrible hearing ability but I can't now. (obviously the masks are far more important than my issues).

There's a particular poster here on MN who will also lose her shit over compulsory masks. She who "may" have said she'd resign over it. Grin

Monkeytennis97 · 01/01/2021 13:58

I deleted my previous post re masks because I thought it might be too outing.

Oh well, presumably he wasn't worried about his body as he was hiding out in his office, rather than breathing in the air of 150 kids a day. But better his dead body than yours, @Piggywaspushed. Can't argue with stupid.
