They can go on a bit, can't they?
"OFSTED are coming next week so I'll have to work round the clock and make myself ill".
What I actually say "Aw, poor you!"
What I think: "You know they're coming at some point, so why did you spend four of your six weeks of summer break sanding the bedroom door by hand while watching the Olympics in a dusty room instead of using the electric sander for a day, watching the Olympics from the comfort of an armchair while spending the spare time thus created to do all the year's worth of lesson prep you're now having to do in a single week? As an added bonus, you might then have some free time on school nights so you didn't live like a hermit until the following July."
