I could have got away with saying my Chinese Grand Prix Qualifying report<\/a> was today’s blog. But it isn’t really. So I can’t. One small piece of F1 news from that: Mark Webber<\/a>, who\u00a0initially\u00a0qualified 14th, will start at the back of the grid after the amount of fuel n his car wasn’t\u00a0enough\u00a0to a) get him back to the pits on his own and b) provide a 1 litre sample for the FIA<\/a>. 150ml was all that he had in his tank as he pulled up.<\/p>\n

Today was spent putting some finishing touches to work. It’s almost unbelievable that I am back at school on Monday after such a relaxing break. I don’t ever remember a school holiday working out so well for me. I don’t feel ready to go back – I’m not itching to do so – but I do feel ready to face the challenges that each teaching day provides again. That wasn’t quite the case before Easter<\/a>, if I’m honest.<\/p>\n

Other events today include the beginnings of constructing our raised beds<\/a> in the garden – rain and the lack of a drill to make pilot holes in the corner supports stopped us from getting much further than levelling out the ground where the first one will be which was a job and a half. As well as this, we spent the evening in the company of Sally, Graham and Isobelle around their house. The meal and entertainment of Simon Monkey were lovely! Thanks!<\/p>\n

A fairly late blog, but I’ve also been trying to set up the wireless connection between my router and the Sky+ box. It’s not playing ball. I gave up and wrote this instead.<\/p>\n

Expect the usual update every 5 laps blog during the race tomorrow morning, after which I shall be catching up on tonight’s Doctor Who.<\/p>\n
