Calamari sounds more posh.

F*** me
Just been looking in the local paper and there is an article about my Grand son;s school
It has been broken into and vandalised - material and stuff for a new trampoline has been stolen, general vandalism and graffiti
IT IS A SPECIAL NEEDS SCHOOL FFS!!!!!!
the trampoline equipment specifically for an accessible trampoline that all pupils can use
useless for anything else
Honestly -!!!!!
seems like they had raised the money via all sorts of events but luckily they hadn;t told the kids
so at least they won;t be arriving excited to see the new stuff
just wondering if they need any help with bad knees and no talent!!
I'm officially mad

Airfryed from frozen, so I suppose I did cook after all.

And some good news on the education front
As some of you may remember - I was a teacher for many years -
last 3 I was an IT Technician and IT Teacher in a local Primary school
Anyway - in all that time there were several pupils that I worried about going forward
but the one I most worried about was called - well lets call him Fred (I never taught a Fred!!!)
Anyway - Fred was always in trouble - never much just not paying attention, messing about and stuff
often to be found sitting in the corridor after having been sent out
In my lessons with him I found that he could be managed as long as you gave him a job - anything - he just loved feeling that he was being helpful
He also loved Eddie Stobart lorries so I suddenly had a lot of teaching tasks that could involve lorries!
and I had a lot of note that had to be taken to the office quite often
but he was never the brightest spark in the bonfire
Fred's father - there was no mother around - had problems - stroke, lack of money - all sorts - and Fred was his carer - which didn;t help
anyway - he was the most helpful kid I have ever taught
VERY willing to help anyone
I was seriously concerned that a drug gang would find him a very useful courier
lot of stuff was passed on to Social Services
Anyway - he moved onto Senior School and I lost track of him
Anyway - I was looking around local school website today looking at GCSE and other results
and I found his name from a few years ago - he was in a group highlighted for special achievement from the local FE college
Qualification in Electrical Engineering!!
(not sure what the meant - HNC maybe??)
but anyway - sounds like he got on well and has got a way forward!!!!!
So pleased for him
although he probably doesn;t remember me much - if at all
