Take two steps to the left....

It's been a busy week....

.... meetings and conferences for school...

... lesson observations...

... evening meetings for church....

.... a first meeting at WD discussing Mr Ben's transition statement - an ok start, negotiations to be resumed at his annual review.

The work on our back years is virtually done, so Al and I spent the morning sorting out the the shed {utility room?!} and clearing space.

By lunch time we'd had enough.

Richard had kindly offered Al a ticket for the Everton match in the early evening - so we went to Liverpool One for the rest of the afternoon for lunch at GBK and a little shop.
 It was pretty busy - we ended up parking on the rooftop carpark by John Lewis.


 Mr Ben has discovered Ninjago - I talked him out of the £50 set and convinced him that the smallest set was cool!

Miss Megs was entranced by this owl chalk board - I should be a share holder in Sass&Belle!

Oh - and two steps to the left?

The speaker at the conference on Thursday was Dr Andrew Curran - 

he was a quite brilliant speaker.... his explanations of neurobiology clear and enlightening....

.... I remain to be convinced by his statement that stress is just perception - hence

"When faced by an immovable object just take two steps to the left 
and it's not in front of you any more."

But it's worth considering!
