AnonyMouse_19762 Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 I must qualify that with apologies to those who don't have a break But for those that do - Happy half-term - as Cait reminded us on another thread - this marks the halfway point in the school year - wow how did that happen? Has anyone got any exciting plans? Of course I have the jolly old TDL - but not too long/bad (unless I go mad and decide to update my SEF most unlikely :lol: ), also have a couple of lunch dates with friends, shopping for all the stationery that I need for the new term, a trip to the hairdresser and I plan to spend some lots of time reading (for pleasure as opposed to work) Enjoy! :1b 5 Quote
FSFRebecca Posted February 10, 2017 Posted February 10, 2017 Grumble grumble moan. Not me, not likely - next break is the Easter weekend Quote

AnonyMouse_19762 Posted February 10, 2017 Author Posted February 10, 2017 Another week to go here...... Oh no - you must have a very short term 4 then? Quote
AnonyMouse_8282 Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 A day short of six weeks. Do they let you use next terms funding for the extra week? Ours has to stop on the 31st March, we actually finish on the 29th. Quote
AnonyMouse_26037 Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 My plans mostly just involve pottering at home and working on the inevitable TDL. Really trying to have a few things on there being things around the house that need doing. I went in to town yesterday and got my hair cut as well as totally failing to buy any clothes which was my other aim! Today I'm being domesticated and trying to restore my house to some kind of order. If I get that fair I might bake some bread or scones (or both!). I'd like to cook something delicious for tea but I don't know what I'm in the mood for! Quote
AnonyMouse_19762 Posted February 12, 2017 Author Posted February 12, 2017 Are you making cheese scones young froglet? I only ask because I might have to pop up for one if they are cheesy :rolleyes: My half-term has got off to a great start - yesterday (despite the snow) met with friends for lunch - today am off to town for some stationery shopping and this evening we have been invited to dinner with oldest son, daughter-in-law and two of our grandchildren :1b Quote
AnonyMouse_19762 Posted February 12, 2017 Author Posted February 12, 2017 A day short of six weeks. Oh I see (no I don't) we will finish on 28th March........ Quote

Glad you're having a good time. 1 Quote

Glad you're having a good time. Just to keep you updated... in the interests of decluttering my baking cupboard I have made chocolate and hazelnut brownies instead. There may be blackberry and apple crumble with a coconut crumble topping later... 5 Quote

It's worked on so many hours per term, so it's not tapping into a new terms funding at all. Although I'm not quite sure how they are going to reconcile the funding for those children whose entitlement should start on 1st April, as we don't break up for Easter until 7th April. 1 Quote
AnonyMouse_26037 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 I did a full day of school work yesterday and have worked all morning today. I could no longer resist and there is a bowl of bread dough rising in the corner. It should be out the oven at about 4pm if anyone wants to join me! 2 Quote
AnonyMouse_19762 Posted February 14, 2017 Author Posted February 14, 2017 On my way! Enough with all the working though - are you going to get some time for a rest? I have been very lazy, haven't even looked at the TDL, will need to tomorrow I think! Quote

AnonyMouse_26037 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 not sure where you are froglet - i am on the south coast ,hampshire-is it far from me? I'm in south Derbyshire but I'll save you a bit! Quote
AnonyMouse_26037 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 On my way! Enough with all the working though - are you going to get some time for a rest? Needs must! I have a student who is lovely but the paperwork and many meetings mean I'm very far behind. I'm hoping that today will be it for work - if only because my book group meets tomorrow and I still have 300 pages of the book to go! Quote
AnonyMouse_19762 Posted February 14, 2017 Author Posted February 14, 2017 Oh what are you reading? Quote
AnonyMouse_26037 Posted February 14, 2017 Posted February 14, 2017 Oh what are you reading? The hundred year old man who climbed out of the window and disappeared! 1 Quote
