First (proper) day of the break, strong start:
✅ Beach clothes not delivered in time
✅ Lost purse and all bank cards
✅ Partner flying from a different airport (always the plan, just quite annoying due to above)
✅ Own flight delayed for 3+ hours due to lack of pilot – at South West, England
Gutted we lost out but delighted to have been at @KelvingroveArt (my fave building) for the #eurovision2023 reveal for The One Show. Hanging out with Lawrence Chaney is not a bad way to end the week! – at Glasgow, Scotland

I expect that @bbclaurak reacted with the same inward sigh that teachers across the land have on a weekly basis, when the class clown arrives in one of *those* moods for a double lesson on a Friday afternoon 🫣😆😳 – at Edinburgh, Scotland

Devastated that I wasn't able to single-handedly increase viewing figures for #Neighbours and secure its long-term future through my overt references in lessons ('Neighbours is the best soap' model essay being a high point) but what a way to end it 🎉🥹💔
