Morning #teacher5oclockclub ! On the ward today, which means I have a bit more time than usual, which means posh tea.
A very data-ery day ahead setting up assessments.
Have a good day all ☕

Morning #teacher5oclockclub ! Cat realised she had slept downstairs whilst door was open to go upstairs at 0515 this morning. Did so by running up the stairs and meowing loudly, before jumping on me.
On the plus side no alarm needed and it's off to work 😂

This morning's emergency lesson prep has consisted of cobbling together ancient laptops and installing @raspberrypi.com OS to have some working hardware on the ward this morning.
Have to say Raspberry Pi OS is just about perfect for this 👍
Now if only one would hold charge....

Morning #teacher5oclockclub ! Up early as didn't sleep much as was thinking about how to approach a data issue. Very rock-'n'-roll 😂
However it does mean I might get two cups of tea in, instead of one ☕☕

There's a kettle in my room, and my Y11s help themselves to a brew. Normally cheap tea, but for mock prep @yorkshiretea.bsky.social
A Y10 tried to make off with it, normally ignored by Y11. Not this time. "Leave our Yorkshire!" Was shouted. The Y10 wisely did exactly that.

Morning #teacher5clockclub ! Last day for me as I'm off tomorrow to head North for #OMM2025 .
Lots of data and assessment bits, and hopefully a bucket of tea, to get through.
Still no cycling ☹️ . Hopefully back on the bike after half term when the hand works again 😄

Turns out it is a bad idea to catch a falling razor sharp auger bit. 18 stitches later....
Staff at Cumberland Centre were amazing, especially considering I showed up just before closing time!

Morning #teacher5oclockclub ! Late check in due to indecision about where to work from today - decided it's a work from home so no one else needs to suffer me shouting at the computer kind of day.
