@ICT_MrP This particular contributor has a track record of criticising the teaching profession. Look up her newspaper columns from the last few decades - she certainly has an agenda!

@danbardell Luc Nilis. Not just because of his horrific suffering. Not just because of the lost opportunities and premature end to a great player’s career. Mostly because it was just so needless. A professional life rubbed out over a mindless moment in an average league match. Ghastly.

Downloading the last ever @DestinyTheGame update. Yes - it had lost direction since The Final Shape but the greatest experiences I have had in 40 years of gaming have been within Destiny and Destiny 2. Let’s hope we ultimately get D3. #Destiny #Bungie #Destiny2

@scriptwren An amazing achievement. 🍾 Passing them both within a single academic year whilst working full time - teaching KS3 and GCSE is staggering. Welcome to the profession! 🎓

@ScarredForLife2 Both this, and the earlier BBC adaptation of The Phoenix and the Carpet both enchanted me and terrified me in equal measure. Wonderful!

The school holiday has finally arrived in Sussex along with a majestic pink moon. Hopefully this augurs well for us down here and those going up there.

Spring is here! After a week I’d sooner forget involving Ofsted and stresses galore - it’s beautiful here in St Leonards.

@teacherhead Just been through two days of it. The amount of time it has taken away from planning, delivering extra one-to-ones, helping colleagues and marking NEAs is enormous. Oddly enough, students have had their teaching week (and beyond) impacted negatively by the timing 🤦‍♂️.

View from M&S cafe today in Bexhill. Grim and grey - but the rain might just stop tomorrow.

Marking mock exams in Brighton today whilst my dear other half goes to the hair salon. IKEA next, then back to Bexhill to get the papers finished.

@scriptwren I am on my way home from Gay Paris. See you a bit later for tea and sympathy - possibly something a bit stronger.

@artdeco_fan There’s something about the deception and dishonesty that doesn’t sit well with me, despite it being performative. The idea of ‘murdering’ people too - it’s not great. I fully get the irony and camp, but I can’t enjoy it.

I think I am nearly unique by being a bit disturbed by The Traitors. Can’t really watch it and don’t like it. And yes - I am aware that it’s a televised parlour game writ large. Still - no one died and it made people happy.
