To fill you in...

Ok so I’m new to this blog lark and obviously have many insightful thoughts – well I moan a lot (in a comical way) and in the true spirit of the 21st century these musings deserve space in the virtual world.

So before we get to the present day let me fill you in. It is definitely true what they say, you can take the girl out of the city but you can’t take the city out of the girl and after spending 23years in London I now live in a little village in the countryside up north. After lots of back and forth to uni I have settled at being a geography teacher which has its good and bad moments – the kids cockney rhyming slang is coming on a treat though! There have been many a comical moment of which people frequently remind me of – some of which I’m sure will find its way on here!!

So what’s been and gone this year and what is there left to look forward to? Well the first thing I looked forward to this year was a very tasty sausage sandwich; I decided you always need something to look forward to however small, followed by half term in Prague. Prague is a lovely place with lots of interesting architecture and sculptures to look at which you can see below – the snow made it look very picturesque, though it was bloody cold! And despite everyone asking I don’t recall seeing prostitutes lining the streets – unless I thought they were just girls on nights out!!

The past couple of months have been relatively uninteresting but busy – parent’s evenings, assessments, occasional nights out - the usual. However, things to look forward to…well, white water rafting is going to be cool, followed by Take That at Wembley then holiday!! Very excited, two and a bit weeks touring western America, going to be very cool! No doubt there will be lots to say in the run up to that!

So that’s about it…oh but just a random extra to start this blog going I had a crazy dream the other night where I woke up in terror…I was an au pair with the American from the apprentice – we had to look after two kids, she had the toddler and I had the baby and these aliens were after us. The one time I turned around there were computer game style witches chasing me. Whilst protecting the baby I had to pick up the little witches and throw them at the big ones to not get caught – it was like I was in an actual game – very terrifying. Any ideas at what this could mean??
