I seem to have spent the summer apologising for being so late reading and commenting and now it's even worse with the move about to begin. I really love your photo journal of your summer activities, especially the selfie and the photos are even better when when in the Lightbox.Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214396019726161983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6222502286514724902.post-60976150900636692552014-09-18T12:41:40.685+02:002014-09-18T12:41:40.685+02:00Definitely feeling more motivate, Ayak, though tim...Definitely feeling more motivate, Ayak, though time will always be against me, I think!

Although the children don't have a half-term here, I have built one into my own teaching timetable as I really value the break and feel my students need a break from me too. The children get a few days holiday dotted around before Christmas, including this Friday when it's the local fiesta and ArtyZenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12628693178003940118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6222502286514724902.post-27848938550071613482014-09-16T13:32:45.181+02:002014-09-16T13:32:45.181+02:00Thanks Nilly - we love the mountains too and promi...Thanks Nilly - we love the mountains too and promise you that we appreciate them every day!

I keep thinking how lovely it would have been to catch up at Cheshire Oaks...I wasn't planning on a second visit but I could force myself if a coffee together were on the cards! <br />Summer is either the perfect blogging time or just not and I know a few that have been uninspired/unable to do much this summer - but. if time allows, I am hoping to get back into the swing.

I have loads to share but having a bloggers block. could be to do with the fact that I have just returned from a fantastic trip to Italy , and didn't want to come home. I am in work this week, and my hubby is away for a month , in Asia , that is not good , :-( so maybe get back to it in a weeks time.
