Seventy days left of the year. It’s flying by now. Today was interesting. Much of what happened today I can’t write about as it involves relationships with colleagues. It was a frustrating morning though and I think that sums up a portion of it. I had been given the morning to work with staff on […]
I was full of good intentions tonight. Wanted to finish off some stuff on my perpetual list, but instead a migraine took over and I’ve just slept. Another thrilling update, but it explains some of the harder moments from today. Times where I couldn’t think about simple things. My head has been fuggy all day. […]
Frankly, today has been the perfect Sunday. I’ve done a minimal amount of work and spent the majority of it with family and friends. Therefore, apart from telling you about a gorgeous cake, I have nothing to say. I’ll see you tomorrow.
Today was a trip across the country to Morecambe in aid of Mrs Pitts’ parent’s 40th wedding anniversary. They had made the trip to spend some time with my sister-in-law, known as Sister Flash (sometimes), and we had travelled along to surprise them for lunch at Slyne Lodge as they were unaware of our presence.

For the first time in a while I enter a weekend with not a huge amount of things to get done. Which is a god job as we’re off to Morecambe tomorrow, and then other things are happening on Sunday. Today, however, was another good day at school. Things are very settled at the moment […]
100 days ago we, Mrs Pitts and I, started a bit of a challenge by accident. This was to break our geocaching streak record. Before this July it stood at 50 days straight of finds. It currently stands at 100 consecutive days of finds. On the 10th July we found the first of these caches […]
Now then, nothing much of interest happened today. So I’m going all geeky on you and introducing you to Friedman numbers. The reason? Why, 289 is a Friedman number – it’s almost like I plan these things (I don’t, I just Google when I struggle to write anything.) Anyway, Friedman numbers occur an expression using […]
Tonight I got a few jobs done from my list in an attempt to clear the weekend a little and get ahead. One of the, organising French lessons for years 3 and 4, I’ve been meaning to do since September! The reason they need organising is that the scheme of work is spread across four […]
The title… well it’s about a quiz on BBC Four. Some people call it Only Connect. Because that’s its name. A few days ago I posted about the Lazy Caterer’s Sequence and this was the answer to a question on the quiz. I knew it instantly because of writing for this blog. That’s rare that […]
The Japanese Grand Prix was one of the better races in this last half of the season. It wasn’t a race dominated by one car, there were battles through the field and it was a bit of a cracker all round. Sebastian Vettel hasn’t quite won the World Championship yet, however Vettel will clinch the title […]
