Just long mate, plus a flat tyre on the way home and having to spend an
hour making part of my fancy dress outfit have meant I have only just sat down and I left school at 15:40

I am all prepped for tomorrow,
I don't have to teach them really, it's more behavioural management and support when they need it. I basically get to play board games, watch videos in Welsh and play Duplo with Charlie all afternoon.
