Well, they’re on their way (they set off at 8.26, he left a message) and our house is winding up in the usual fashion; everything has been cleaned, wiped, hoovered, dusted, ironed, put away.
But now we have a serious issue, because we can’t find the Christmas place mats.
Bedlam.

You got this. Last push. End on a high, clean the slate, no consequences hung over till next term, no grudges left untangled. This week notice the positive even and especially when things wobble.

I am sure the fella who flattened the grass will sort out the problems with schools that celebrate a culture of fear.

Come on you can do this, eyes on the prize, two weeks to go. Make the chaos predictable, let the glitter flow and watch out for those young people whose Christmas is nothing to look forward to.
