In my PJs at not quite 6pm and settling in for the evening with this rather large tome.
Miss 14 - “What *is* that beast - the Bible or something?”
I mean, good call. It’s set in the time of Mary and Elizabeth Tudor’s reigns so there’s a fair bit of Catholic/Protestant to-and-fro-ing.

In #MathsToday, “Miss, this calculator is really hot, can I use your mini screwdriver?”
Turns out the spring at the end of the battery was MELTING THE PLASTIC CASING!!

Seven years since I asked my UK friend Ed to attend a #taskmaster book signing and meet @alexhorne.bsky.social on my behalf.
One day I SHALL see you ‘soon’, Alex. I just need to win the lottery first.

Checked out the new road from #Woodville to #Palmy via #Remutaka today on my bike. Lunch with my big sis in Palmy North, then back home over #Paekakariki. Obligatory stop at the top of course!

This is the band rotunda in Devenport. I was heading past it on a bus one day and noted the music on it. Turns out it’s “God save the King”. So cool!

Home from dinner at the in-laws. They have Sky but now I’m home I have to slum it with text-based cricket 😒
Oh well, at least I have wine so that’s something.

My local fb had one of those “let’s help each other - what do you need?” posts.
I needed some large boxes for a school display and also asked about the sequel to a book that I read recently.
Not only did I get my boxes, I got ALL SIX of the books in the series. And nobody wanted any money. Win!

One thing I really enjoy is writing new lyrics to existing songs.
This is an upcoming farewell ‘speech’ for my Head of Maths.
I literally laughed out loud when the underlined gag came to me and giggled all the way through typing it. 😂
(It’s to the tune of #MontyPython #LumberjackSong)

When sanding and oiling your #kobudo weapons, it’s important to have your teens in the room with you and ensure you make eye contact with them to make it *really* awkward.
