Mmm Arran gold is great stuff. I’m planning on trying out a home made whiskey cream recipe I came across. Basically a bottle of jamiesons, condensed milk and some other stuff.
Chocolate powder. Invented by an English pair. A good read: https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/books/in-1973-i-invented-a-girly-drink-called-baileys-1.3240945
I’ve also got the Edradour equivalent in too, mmm
Well done you!! Plenty done, very wholesome!! Wrapping is a pain, but good to get it out the way! Are you going to Caithness for Christmas or staying home? Do you finish up next week?
Finishing Friday :) Aye, Caithness for the big day, but travelling pretty late, as we’ve panto tickets on the Sunday down here. Christmas films tomorrow for more wholesomeness
Sounds ideal! You can watch for santa while you travel!!
Had some manic schizophrenic cunt running a targeted harassment campaign at me aw week cause I told him to fuck up and stop posting holocaust denial shite.
But up the west end for Christmas jumper night oot wea the lads tomorrow 🍻
Yeah, the fediverse is resistant to bans and moderation just as much as it is enshittification resistant too. Blocks are cheap, they’ll get bored eventually!
Had my work night out last week, put up the tree on Sunday, did 2 nativity performances on Tuesday, found out we’re getting inspected in January. Great!! Out for dinner tomorrow night and really need to start wrapping and getting gifts out!!
2! We did my youngest’s today. Just a narrator for him, but he smashed his line. Sorry to hear about the inspector, bust a hump this week so you can relax over the holidays is my advice. And enjoy tomorrow night, we’re off out too as we’ve a guest around. Fancy a steak
Oh love a steak!! I’m out for chinese! Yeah my p1s perform in a morning and afternoon! First performance is always best! What nativity did your wee one do? Ours was camel-ama-ding-dong!!
We have until the 19th if Jan, so plan to get as tidy and displays done then during hols can do planning and prep!! Yuck!!!
The Big Little Nativity. Three big classes together meant only a line for most. And isn’t it the paperwork that most inspections fail at?
We had 13 camels so i had to dye 13 white tshirts and use sick bowls painted brown for humps!!! Our kids had between 1 and 5 lines to learn with about 8 songs and they did great!! Although we did have a wiseman fight on stage that i had to quickly lift off of the stage! I feel terrible anxiety over the whole inspection thing coz you just want it to go well and dont want to let the side down.
Yeah, too much pressure on the inspections. I think they should be annual for every school and much smaller
We get an annual/biannual one from the LA and its quite intense. Already had it in September, then extra observations in October!
