It’s definitely not improving quickly at all.

The fees are more than 10 times what’s allocated per child in a state school, and there will be the transport costs. It’s mind blowing. I do understand the reason for the cost, there’s an enormous staff to pupil ratio. I expect she’s going to thrive there. It will be so much better for her.

Exactly. Makes me sick.

I’m retired. I’d love to sit in all day and read or watch TV but my other half keeps wanting to ‘do’ stuff, and that infuriatingly expensive gym membership won’t reap the rewards if I don’t use it.
I bet I could be a couch potato for months!

This happens to me all the time. It’s so frustrating.

Exactly. Best not to bury my head in the sand, but it’s always so polarised now.

Retired now, but my last job pre-pandemic was a mixture of location auditing, working in office or wfh.

If I had prep or write up, I got so much more done at home. So much more.

I used to go into office for a rest. Networking and using on site gym!

Is there a make/model you would recommend?

Yes, that’s definitely a good idea. Last year we left the door open, but to stop the dogs barking so much, we’ve left the room closed to them all winter, it’s got very cold in there and we’ve paid the price.
Dogs will be thrilled as we are going to leave door open 😀

Have spent morning moving tree and furniture, and cleaning mould, and rushing out to buy a heater!

Happy Christmas 🎅🏼

You can go off people you know 🤣🤣

I didn't realise he was a comedian 😂

Quite shocked when I read that in the article!
