The weather turned bitterly cold last week, with a very cold wind. We are pretty well insulated this year, with curtains hanging over the doors, however it was definitely time to get the stove working. Ian swept the chimney and the fire started with the minimum of smoke – which was good – and resulted in us spending the rest of the day in t-shirt! We went to Pepe’s on Saturday after classes and he had hot ashes under the tables with the blankets on top for people to snuggle up under. This is a habit that gets into people from an early age. In classes, even the young ones come in and pull the table cloth over them. No doubt disappointed to find no heat!
I had 24 hours of classes last week over 7 days, however there are the equivalent of mock exams coming up which I think means I will see less of the eso 4 group (15/16 year olds). Trying not to let my rubber stamping site slip too much and Ian has helped me out with some Christmas things so I will start this month ahead.
Here is this week’s joke. Admittedly it isn’t that funny, however it was quite easy to do!
