Tired

Sat in school supervising the detention and feeling very tired after watching 'Lost' last night in its double bill finale. With the ads taken out it could easily have been one episode and serves to highlight just how good sky plus is for removing that waste of time.

I am losing count of the number of students excluded following the arrival of the new Head. As a result inclusion is busier than ever with the returning students working away from class prior to reintegration.

One Year 8 boy has been here all week and must be getting fed up hearing the same jokes although the following went down well judging by the class reaction.

Mike, an avid golfer, was teeing up for a very difficult shot. At that moment a funeral procession went by. Mike stopped, stood still with his hat over his heart, and bowed his head. His golfing partner looked at him and said, "Mike, that was kind and decent of you to show such respect for the dead."
Mike replied, "Well, we have been married for nearly twenty years."

Guess my race is run
She's the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and the law won'
