'Nobody puts Baby in a corner.'
An amusing night out at the Hippodrome. Not sure that Dirty Dancing intended their stage show to cause such amusement but the field/water scene caused great hilarity amongst our group and led to plans to integrate the scene into forthcoming assemblies/end of year performances as we think we can do as well if not better.
Also enjoyed my cheeky cider in the interval ;)

And I discovered that you can tell I learned German in Switzerland from my responses to this quiz. Not quite correct on the region though (Zürich came in 5th!)

I came home to a parcel - always makes me smile! This one was special as it was my prize for knowing about horses belonging to famous people, real and imaginary. Looking forward to making the glasses - fits very well with lessons on animals coming up soon!

And the sender, who is a very funny man in person, made me smile even at a distance. Thanks Steven!

Back a bit better :)

Lovely moment during break duty when a gaggle of little girls came and surrounded me in a group hug because I looked cold (I was!) :D

Staff deciding to use the girls' toilets rather than go all around the building work to the staff room ones in another building. :) 

Finished week 2 of the MOOC I've doing - and my sketchnotes are evolving nicely. I'm pleased with my increasing use of images!

An enforced day at home and more robin watching. Lots of zoom but here he is! 

And here's John watching too! 

Time for sleep now. Hopefully!

Beautiful blue sky again today. And new blossom in the garden too. 

Sitting on a chair to sing at church was fun this morning; no key changes so the congregation were spared me 'doing a Westlife' and rising from my seat! 

This cartoon made me smile, not just because it's about Zürich but also because it points out that Ü looks like a smile! 

Diéresis.

Kinesio tape on my ankle. 

Jigsaw making. 

And more robin watching. 

I know it's a hedge. The robin was sitting in that hole when I pressed the button! Cheeky chap!

I spent today RICE-ing my ankle (which is improving!) which gave me the opportunity to do some online shopping (lots of books arriving soon!) as well as finish my planning for next week and read for a bit.

The highlight however was that throughout the afternoon I've been watching two little robins flying back and forth through the hedge with food in their mouths and delivering it to the greenery near the living room window. Robins are very special little birds to my family and this made me smile. Unfortunately I didn't manage to get a photograph as I couldn't move (husband's orders!) and even if I did, I startled them and they flew. 

So you get a photograph of my delicious yoghurt instead! Highly recommended. 

And this made me smile too - http://www.newlyswissed.com/31-reasons-why-switzerland-is-the-happiest-country/
