cool freebie from rep today, a heart!! will take piccie and flikrise. It is anatomical and opens up – even the tenae chordae tendonae [heart strings] are there. SB thought it was rather great = i did worry that it was too old really for her. felt like asking for 6, but a bit greedy!
I’m on call but managed to get home.Its been a crap week at work really with my pair off sick, so i am worked to a frazzle. 24 hour shift on sun as well, never mind. have a paper to write up, 2 guidelines, a couple of patient info leaflets, a website, one audit to carry on with and 2 to start. shall try and do some on sun.
we do seem to have slipped into a routine of late bedtime in working week, and me doing stories. this means I don’t feel quite as bereft of SB, though not ideal. there are moves afoot to change our working pattern again, so I am trying to get it family friendly at least. a mooted idea is that we work one hideous 48 hour weekend every 8 weeks, but followed by a week off [as would have worked all the week in one go!] so in my book worth it.
chris at present annoying the life out of me with his fake hiccoughs!

I have usborne’s timetraveller, and dk eyewitness castles, vikings, greeks and romans, also the why series, which has a greek one and a castle one. [in fact I have plenty on castles] so not sure whether the last 3 would add much?? otherwise for the lion book, i really am after a nice book of multicultural stories from around the globe which I thought this might be good for? what does anyone think??
ALSO IS IT Too early for susan wise bauer story of the world??
At the moment we are doing a lot on castles and sea creatures, having now left slightly the dreamtime phase! Mind you castles good reading as going to mediaeval fayre in godmanchester tomorrow after stagecoach.
