Busy day!

Totally non boating related but an extremely busy day today! The builders at school have finally pulled out, (talk about cutting it fine!) and so it has been very hectic trying to sort out all the offices and admin block in readiness for the start of the new term on Tuesday. Been in school much of today, all of yesterday, some of tomorrow. Monday is officially a full days inservice training which will be spent in meetings, planning and the last bits of cleaning up and sorting out thingsand then, on Tuesday, I meet my new class again and head off for the next year long adventure with the little darlings!

My father has arrived today to visit for the night. Actually, he's just using me as an overnight hotel given that he's in the area for a day or two. It's good to see him. It will also be good to see Paul Blundell from NB Strawberry Fields who is arriving tomorrow to moor at Brinklow. Paul is an avid reader of this blog and it's always nice to meet up with friends who have visited my 'virtual home'!
