Yes, I can get the bus in to the end of the central line- then straight in. 😁
-
Yes, she did that first thing this morning xx Well, that's the thing - desperate for the bus pass for one reason, and one reason only.... photo ID! 🤣🤣 I still have my old paper drving license 😁
-
Well, today has been eventful (for me!) 3 things have happened- 1) Daughter finally got Covid! - first case in direct family 😳 I collected GD as my DD was feeling so rough this morning and as I'd already spent yesterday with my GD climbing all over me and sitting on my head etc I may as well take a chance. Anyway DD's partner came home form work early this afternoon as he tested postive, not actaully ill though. (at the moment) Think we'll be having a little visiter for the whole weekend now. 2) I claimed my Bus Pass 🙀🤣 3) I actually put in to start my state pension!!!! 🙀🙀 ... more or less decided now. And it's been very sunny but cold here today.

Fingers crossed its sorted soon zigzag. Yes it certainly is Friday again. New grandson is due in 5/6 weeks and time is just flying by! 🙀 So,so week at preschool. I have to admit although I do actually enjoy going into work I am now well and truly ready to leave (I think). I did say i would continue until my granddaughter leaves, but she could (should really) go local to her for her last year. Anyway it's a sunny but cold and windy day here today. I'm off out for a meal with an old friend this evening - hope the rain holds off until I'm back! 😊 Have a good weekend everyone

If you clearly state that you offer funded places within you core hours of 9-3 and the addional times are an optional extra you should be fine- this is how many full day care setting make up the funding short fall. You would have to make it very clear though! Plus would wouldn't be able to 'make' them take up the extra 30mins- it would have to be an option extra.

Gosh! I thought you were a year or so older than me 🙀 I'm 27!!!! 🤣

Good to see most have had a good Christmas and new year. Hope the knee isn't giving to much grief sunnday, some times I think the Drs like to cause stress 🙁 My friend has a voicemail left at 7.30pm asking her phone them ASAP for test results (well woman clinic) ... only to be told when she eventualy managed to get throught to them- ' it was just to say that everyting was fine' !! Hope you're feeling a bit better now too froglet - i must admit I thought you meant you'd ordered 4 adult novels 🤣 I was thinking blimey she is a quick reader! Anyway it's my granddaughters 3 birthday day - and tomorrow she is actually having her first proper big family birthday party! She doesnt really like crowds of people I think that's her Covid legacy 😥 (somehow i seem to be hosting it - so I'd best get cooking and cleaning! 🙀🤣)
-
I'll third that - Happy Christmas everyone, and a healthy happy new year xx
-
We finished on the 14th! Like you the wages are the only thing done or even thought about - the new mw says I'll do it in January! And now relax .... 😊 How is your water situation now? You're not one of those that might be off until after Christmas are you? (just saw that on the news)
-
We are sort of the same- wider issue covering two counties... Lots of comments on the village page about lack of pressure, my daughter 12 miles away has none, howver our little lane seems fine 😳 That said, we have such low water pressure here anyway- so maybe we just havent noticed!🤣
-
My daughter's friend is trying to move- the whole thing has been a nightmare! Finger's crossed for a good outcome today 🤞🤞
-
I'm rather hoping Froget Helen wins too.
-
That does sound like long weeks 🙁 As a preschool we go back as early as possoble after summer and Christmas to can finish early. A few of our local schools are extending their daily hours by 15min or so so that they can break up early too (although if we had that option I'd probably want to do 'block weeks' of 6-6 a couple of weeks per term! 🙀🤣🤣
-
Same here- first thing this morning it still looked pretty much the same as Monday morning, however the sun is now out and we are above freezing (+1 🤣) so hopefully something might melt!
-
Well we finished yesterday (Yay!!!) Bit of a nightmare morning, but we did it. Snow' s still around and not much different from Sunday night. But it's sunny now and after starting the morning at -6, it's now only -2 so warming up at last!! It was very pretty driving thought the forest yesterday morning though. 😊 Staff meal tonight, and we have a festive minature train ride booked tomorrow with friends and the grandchildren looking foward to those now. Hope everyone is staying warm. xx
-
I just made him try after he kept saying it wouldnt work.... and I can confirm it didnt work 🤣 (but it still sounds like a good idea in my head!)
-
Anyway, Andy wants to get out and clear paths.... I told him to use the leaf blower - he gave me a 😳 look. Can someone tell me is this not a good idea? Seems perfect in my head. 🙄
-
I recon about the same going by the news? I could get out, but I've reached the age where I'm more worried about my hips than the preschool parents! 🤣🤣🤣
-
🤣🤣🤣!!! I've just tried adding a photo of 30min or so of snow but i cant get it on the laptop at the moment. I would just like to tell everyone- I did say I am 'checking out' of the preschool..... well for the first time EVER, I looked out of the window this morning (early) and said to myself 'no, not opeing today' without a care or concern about funding implications or any guilt whatsover 🤣🤣 (should add no working parents today anyway). I 'could' get to work (3.5 miles) and the farmer down the road has just cleared our road, however just been told the car park is closed anyway 🤣 and it's permit parking only everywhere else so no point going in anyway! 🤷♀️
-
Just looked out the window 😭 Can't believe it!!!! Nothing there 30 mins ago... now it like a 'whiteout' 😬
-
A bit like my nasturhiums really- they finally got knocked out by the weather yesterday!
-
It's Friday, and I'm shattered! 🤣 Have a good weekend everyone xxx
-
In the end I was almost bordering on rude- I had to more or less put the phone down on her!
-
I always think there's something quite magical about sea glass 😍 Love the crochet 🌲! Looks like you're enjoying the break 😊
-
We just sing a few songs, the children dress up as sorts... bobble hat for snowmen etc. Not to stressfull and the parents like it 😊 We are a preschool 2+, term time only. Yesterday I had a parent of a 17month child (phone call) asking me to help sort her sons childcare at a full time setting as she couldnt find a place- so could I do it for her! 😳🤣
