Light

We went out for a post-ofsted celebratory curry tonight - all the pics of people were not suitable for publishing (people wouldn't have been pleased!) so this was a section of the light cropped from one of the photos! It has a certain arty feel!

And again...

I was out on the school field doing playground duty, when a bunch of kids came running over. 'Mrs Wallace, Mrs Wallace, come quick! Tyler's caught a huge spider in the classroom. He's put a cup over it but you have to come!' To which I replied 'Tell Tyler, I am on duty so can't come in, and he should be outside and not in the classroom without an adult! Tell him to leave the cup over it and come out!' Anyway, I did think it was a really good specimen so we had fun photographing it and then Tyler took it up to show the head teacher, who loves all wildlife. I think he set it free in the school wildlife garden.

Sunset

Another beautiful sunset from our bedroom window

Mark doing the garden

Mark doing what he does best! This was the long awaited day when a fence was put up between our gardens - it's very sad that we can't see each other now that it's finished and there are two six foot panels in place, but good for privacy really! We are putting a gate in halfway up the garden so that Pimms on the lawn can take place in the summer whenever we feel like it! You can see the evidence in the background that we have already been supping tea in the lovely sunshine!

Disco

Had a little dance at Rachael and Jonathan Christopher's joint 40th birthday party. (The girl on the left is not me. I wish it was as she is very slim - I am taking the picture of course)

Babies

These are the tadpoles in my classroom. They are in a blue plastic tray (the bottom of an old hamster cage which makes a good pond!) I don't know why they always line up all the way round the edge of the tray just on the water line but it's funny to see - there are hundreds in the tray all lined up like these! You can see their gills quite clearly.
