@BBCWomansHour I do empathise with those with caring responsibilities. Power of Attorney is an important conversation and helps. I sold up in 2018 and moved in with mum I lost her in 2023 and don’t regret those years at all. Mum was 75. I wish we had had more time
The pass on the cert is an element that was only pass fail and I was one mark off a distinction in the mcq exam. I still don’t know how often I should be cleaning the wheels on my stand dryer 🤷♀️ 3/3
I don’t think I have ever been so proud of a qualification. Just arrived because the first time it was sent it had the wrong grade when I asked the teacher about it she said I didn’t have enough points for a Distinction so I sent her a copy of the spec with the points u/l 1/3
howing I did have enough points and she said she would look in to and I heard nothing. I then had to raise a formal complaint and it was agreed the certificate was wrong and would be amended at the college cost. Satisfactory resolution, mistakes do happen. 2/3
Waiting for a book to arrive as I have been asked to write a review. One of the authors reviewed my book a few years ago and definitely aligned with my ideas on maritime archaeology so I am really excited 😝
Registered for Walk the Wight 2025. Hoping that as I am fitter than last year we will walk faster and Dudley manages a bit more walking and a little less being sat in the dog pram. https://t.co/rxvitD3dUs
#FrescoFriday#FindsFriday
One of those unforgettable days in the #finds room at MOLA, in (yikes!) March 2007....
Heaps of fantastic #frescos like these came in from Lime St site in the City, just to east of #Roman forum basilica.
@thebluestshade You obviously weren’t around 30 years ago the press vilified her - Duchess of Pork (which triggered an eating disorder), the toe sucking thing and the attacks on her financial situation. It was constant.
My cuts are getting more professional. Final exam Friday then two more weeks and I am fully trained. Thanks to all the dog owners on #iow whi have had faith in me. Some customers are coming for the third time now.
According to the budget calculator I will be £4.54 per year worse off because.. cough 🍷. Schools can have it as long as I never have to go back and teach in a classroom ever again. I am continuing as a union caseworker 1 day per week this year and our schools are messed up.
I am developing a Buddy and Dudley character for a short story book for family. Mainly recording on Instagram and I want to fully develop my characters before writing the story. Not sure it will be ready for this Xmas, but soon #maillustrationfalmouth
At Wootton creek and having a day off. If I was still teaching I would be worried about planning/marking/the latest initiative. I worked hard last week, but after my last dog groom left on Friday afternoon. I cleaned up and switched off. #dayoff#relaxing
@SpiritedSparr0w Grief isn’t linear it is a tide that ebbs and flows. My sister lost her little girl over 30 years ago and still has a little box of her belongings under the bed. I cried on the way to college this morning because I miss my mum. You just keep swimming whatever way you can manage
