The first time I've seen a picture frame on a bar. This is possibly one of my favourite pictures ever :-)

One of the perks of working for this school is that it attracts some fabulous speakers. I was fortunate to be in the audience for Gavin Dudeney's very interesting talk about digital literacy.

This week I'm teaching in Norwich at a school based at UEA. This isn't the clearest picture in the world, but it shows Eddie Izzard, who was given an honorary doctorate by UEA for his contribution to Modern Languages. Must have been for this sketch.

A family of birds seem to have nested in our garage. Here's one of the babies, perching on the bonnet of our neighbour's car.

Day 2 and bored of lying on the beach we decided to head into town. I was amused to see fishfingers sold in such a way, and thought it warranted a picture on the blog.

A 10 hour drive, 1000km later, and I still can't get away from the stuff.

We thought leaving at 11pm and driving through the night to Croatia would beat the traffic. So did everyone else. This is the humongous queue that greeted us just as we'd crossed the Slovenian border.

Czechoslovakia's Got Talent appear to be holding their auditions in Brno at the moment. Hhhmmm, I wonder if they'd consider teaching English a talent. I sometimes do :-)
