So today so far has been both up and down, mainly caused by the stresses of trying to keep Stephen in an educative mood so that he goes back to Gosden in a suitable state of helpfulness, whilst also trying to look after a large collection of other kids plus trying, as ever, to remind people that I exist.
Up has mainly been a wonderful endorsement of Dr Sylver from Lord Ron Dearing which was hugely encouraging to recieve and read. Shall add it here and elsewhere soon, just trying to work out how to best format it in terms of sending it out and the like. Publisher is away for Half Term so may have to wait until monday at the earliest.
Downs come.. well.. can't say really... Still a little cross and a little sad about the main one really. Maybe next year is something that I'm becoming used to hearing, but as previously noted I'm not Mr Patient and I am Mr Dreamer. Give me a percentage of hope and it automatically gets mentally increased until I'm surprised when most things don't happen the way I'd dreamt them.
Was also supposed to be meeting a few people in London today but again that's been knocked out, so today has been kaboshed in terms of what I'd planned and had wanted to meet someone in town but events have conspired to make me late for that too.
Anyhow was mooching around the Greenbelt site earlier and came across this:

Hasn't been updated for yonks, but I appreciated the poem and the thoughts behind it. Hope you do too.
