Good morning! Well it's 08.05 am here in Swansea and I'm back at work after a wonderful weekend off. James had Saturday off aswell so we were able to spend sometime together just hanging out. The weather has been beautiful - crisp, cold and bright so I spent sometime in the garden yesterday, not actually gardening but getting a feel for our outdoor space....I found an awful lot of builder's rubbish. I don't have mes trois petits cochons today which makes it a good day! I shouldn't be so harsh on them; one of them was moved to a safe house recently and there's a restraining order against his father. Life isn't fair.
It's only two weeks now till half term and Jim and I jet off to Rome for a week of explorartion and adventure on a shoe string. We're both looking forward to it immensely as it will be our first proper holiday together (awwwww). We just have to find somewhere for el gato to live for a week and we're all set. Speaking of el gato, we took him to the vet on Friday to have his annual booster shot. I'm surprised the vet didn't demand danger money. In the end he had to put Haddon into a crush cage to get the needle into him! It was that or loose his hand. He declined to give him the worming medication but gave us some sachets for his food instead!
Well, I'd better sign off - it's a quater past now and Aileen will kill me if I haven't at least filled the kettle before she arrives. Ah there's nothing like bullying in the work place....

A Roman Holiday...lovely!

About Haddon, perhaps one of your students could invite him home for the week? Strikes me they may have similar dispositions.
