Another day at home today (home schooling). I think it is only the third day I have not been in school since lockdown. I think being at school is easier than being at home and I really do feel for the many parents trying to juggle the roles of a parent along side a worker, … Continue reading

School’s Out – Day 22
Just had a good laugh, watching Not Going Out with Lee Mac – great comedy that you used to watch loads. Lots of serious stuff going on at the moment so it was very welcome. There are a good number of proper comedy programs that are very much light hearted and somewhat therapeutic – my … Continue reading
School’s Out – Day 21
Can you believe that we are now starting the 7th week of lockdown? Each day for me, I am seeing and hearing of more people starting to find the distance difficult, in terms of not seeing and physically interacting with friends, neighbours and colleagues. If possible, I do think we need a push and reminder … Continue reading
Run complete – but tired now.
School’s Out – Day 20

Now … Continue reading

Why on earth are … Continue reading
School’s Out – Day 17
The end of another day in lockdown yet working in a confined space. I’m lucky though as I get to walk around the garden many many times supporting Dan on his charity walk for the NSPCC to Goodison Park. I do also get to go out for a run. A fair few miles being clocked … Continue reading
5.5km completed in the rain.
School’s Out – Day 16
Monday 27th April and week four of schools being closed. I am hearing more from colleagues across the country about parents getting impatient and wanting the children back at school. As I understand it we are just over the peak (or about at it) so it is still too soon for all to go back … Continue reading
