We were able to get down to Mum’s for the day. I cooked the chicken before we left home - thank goodness as her oven was acting up! Didn’t know that until I put the spuds in to roast, and even with the temp up to 270 there was no activity from the oil! I left it as long as I dared, even tried to use the grill instead, but it wasn’t having it. I ended up putting the roasting dish on the hob and browning the spuds snd parsnips on there. The pigs and stuffing balls that I’d roasted round the chicken were just flashed in the microwave to heat them up. We ended up eating an hour later than usual, but it was yummy anyway!

Yes it really is. Scary times. Sending all you south-easters a socially distanced elbow bump ! Xxx There’ll be no skiing party off my roof this year, I’m having to cancel it, but Sunnyday, I’ve made an attachment for your balaclava so it will double as a mask. It’s waterproof, so you’ll be fine.

I’m not surprised you’re exhausted! You’ll have been running on adrenaline! Take time for you now. Have you had the test yourself? I can’t remember if you’ve said. Sorry.

Oh Lynne. I really feel for you. What rubbish times we are in at the moment. I’m praying that you’ve not managed to pick anything up and you are able to relax over Christmas and have some well-earned fun! I hope the snipey parent doesn’t carry on her thoughtless ideas after the break. X

I always react to flu Jabs. Arm swells, gets hard and red. This year the nurse told me to have 2 paracetamol as I set off to go for the jab and then an antihistamine as soon as I’d had it. No reaction at all! Fab

On the way home? Jill Murphy

How on earth is it Friday again already! This is ridiculous!

Beat me to it! Have a fabulous birthday - and some good relaxing later! 🥂🍰

I’m binge watching ‘Queer Eye’ on Netflix. I can thoroughly recommend it if you’ve not seen it! It’s fabulous what they do for these people.

Too flipping right! It’s bad enough that it’s hard to almost impossible to keep the anxiety at bay, without having someone remind you of it afresh in the middle of your family time! There IS life after Preschool after all, even though you eat, sleep, breathe and dream it 24/7!

Gorgeous! I’m a tea in a pot, milk in the cup first, kind of girl!

I was mentioned on Jimmy Young’s radio show back in the day, for phoning in to complain that the minister for children kept referring to children as ‘kids ‘. JY read out my letter and completely agreed with me that it says a lot about the care and love that we give our small people, that we can’t even refer to them as Children

Champagne round at Sunnyday’s tonight then? Needs to be some sort of recognition for such a mega- thread!

Crikey! You should have named and shamed to your MP or the local media! That’s really not on!

Community Website Archive.....eek!
Cait replied to enuffsenuf's topic in Early Years Setting Management
For a communications company, their communications system is woefully inadequate. An hour spent searching the website to find a phone number to actually speak to someone, isn’t unheard of! oh and don’t get me started that they think the number zero is an ‘oh’! They’re ideally placed to educate the nation that it’s a number, not a letter, but instead perpetuate this nonsense. I’m glad I’m not just learning the language! -
Yes I’ve read the GL&PPPS and enjoyed it. I was disappointed with the film, as seems to be the norm when you’ve read a book. I had expected to see at least SOME of it filmed in Guernsey!

Crikey, in my day that would have left only one!

I know how rare those smiles can be, how hard the fight; but oh, that feeling you get when one comes, especially if it reaches their eyes. The best reward. X

I don’t think the Lounge/Golden Time ones ever did count.

Looking at the start of this thread, I began it when I had 9000 posts. I see that I have fewer than that now, so was there a recount? 🤔

How do you get on with the assembly of the bits? I was looking at the reviews for them and a few people complain that whilst the instructions are good for the making, the assembly instructions aren’t good.

A named deputy needs to be level 3. This is because if you couldn’t work for any reason, they would technically be in charge, and of course, that role has to be a minimum of level 3. it is possible to split the role, and I did it with my part- time level 3s very successfully. They divided the elements o& the role between them, using their strengths. I think I would be wanting to do an exit interview. Once she’s gone, you won’t ever have that opportunity for ‘closure’ for both of you again.
