Monday is for marking

A great, great morning!

Then a bit of marking, the purchasing of smokeless fuel, some Lego chat with the boys, a cup of tea and then sitting staring at the weather through the window.

Maybe it's time to light the wood burner.

It has been a funny end to the year - lots of things to think about, marathon to train for, busy busy at work, the usual.

Sensible drinking required over the Christmas period and beyond. A little bit of this and that but no more....

Am I turning into a joyless puritan? I hope not.

I took this whilst flat on the floor in the corridor at school. The beard's days are numbered!
