Day 309 - Ahoy Captain Hastings

Friday February 19th

No CRB in the post today so I'll be back at Kings' next week. Part of me is relieved as spending next week in the world I know is much more relaxing than going to a whole new school and teaching from scratch again. However, all I'm doing is putting it off so I might as well get on with it. It is amusing that one school won't allow me into their classrooms in case I am a paedophile while the other has let me loose since September. Oh well.

We have been getting texts and emails from our friends from Hastings as they went on a cruise over the winter break. It was the right thing not to go as I can't imagine being away at the moment with everything going on with the job and Ellen's exams starting next week, but we do miss our friends terribly. The cruise would have been laughing all the way.

I'm thinking about a  triathlon again - apparently I can rent a decent bike for the summer for  £100. That could work, I just need to get back into a decent training schedule.
