Some parents just wanted to have a genera; chat and it was disconcerting to see queues building up and frowning faces but without being rude there were only so many winding up strategies to use with parents determined to outstay their allocated time. How do you get to see the chidren's work though?Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-33555164956855432452021-10-15T08:59:52.646+01:002021-10-15T08:59:52.646+01:00Go with the motivational speeches.

Quite a few plants here although my orchids are in decline at the moment. Not sure how long they should last. I’ve tried repotting them but still a bit feeble! Maybe time to get new ones. Lots of the pots from the garden have now been brought into the conservatory for winter. Getting a bit crowded in there!

For the record, he bought a whisky glass - I'm saying nothing! :O) Your air plant looks magnificent. I keep forgetting to soak mine, although they did enjoy living outside on the picnic table during the summer. I must say, your son does buy brilliant presents; very thoughtful. I'm not sure if I would like a video link parents' evening. On the plus side there's no hanging around, but on the other hand I'd feel the urge to tidy the house beforehand! Happy speech writing! :O) xxVeggieMummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17467026136649574350noreply@blogger.com
