Amazing and good for you to get some clarity. My friend did it 3 yrs ago and is loving her job. She got some great teaching experience locally that really set her up for the interviews etc. You will be fab (as you know you’ve really helped me with all the info on dyslexia and I can’t thank you enough) x

Ouch I hope you can get it sorted!

You have my sympathy, as a fellow tooth grinder. I have a very sexy mouthguard thing to wear at night, because I'd worn them to the point of needing fillings.
Thank you @Cookiecookie . I wear a mouth guard but had actually ground through it and was about to get a new one when lockdown happened Phoned dentist and only emergencies now so they won’t take me as no pain!

Oh I know, I had quite a few short term temp jobs in my early twenties! It's just that I think she's... let's say embellishing her CV somewhat.
It's that she had these jobs for a short time and considers herself a voice of authority in every industry she's worked in that's the problem.

The best of luck to you, it's a big step, and I'm sure you'll be great. A good friend of mine is a mature student just finishing up her primary teaching postgrad, a lot of work by the sounds of it, but incredibly rewarding too. Good on you!

It was me! It's properly laugh out loud funny isn't it? And very naughty.
Yes! I looked like a mad person walking along HOOTING to myself.
This is very sweetly written, bless her.

And this highlights exactly the point of Patreon. To me it isn't supposed to be a gift, it's a way to pay people for a tangible output. I support two podcasts on Patreon because they put out something excellent that I listen to every week and people shouldn't be expected to do that for free. But as well as that they do loads of extra Patreon content.

I can only imagine her Patrons have simply forgotten they subscribed.

I don't have the brain power today to think of a snappy thread title, but surely beg-a-Smeg has to fit in there somewhere

47 broken bones in her foot, almost new fridge gone kaput, and no freebie from Smeg to boot!

I got mine off Amazon a few years ago, they sent me goo and a guard, then I did and impression and sent it back.

Spot on. I thought the same.

Not bragging but sharing. I managed to snarfu a 16 kg bag of bread flour off Amazon today. Seeing as I am baking lots of bread, including for neighbours, I consider it a good find!

Ah so it’s Jamie now is it, rather than THAT MAN!!
She is such a complete and utter bitch.

Have a couple of linty hugs and a zerb badass. xxx

Just because, I have missed him.

Not an entry as way too long - just a lunchtime musing .....

Beg a Smeg ... Weird-looking poached egg ... Anchovy fingers ... Christ that smell lingers ... Louisa moved out ... Check out my pout ... Communicate with Mum on Twitter? ... I'd rather Nigella say I look fitter ... Finding my inner GI Jane ... 47 broken bones and no pain ... Tracey Emin on the wall ... Still waiting for that BBC call ... My ex left saying I was erratic ... VITAMIN D BABY - I'M ECSTATIC!!

Jack Monroe #17 Poor bald headed beg-a-Smeg, she still can’t beat THAT MAN’s shed.

"Dissenters", does she mean Italians that would love for their traditional recipes to remain authentic?
She's talking absolute crap again as usual, anyway. Neither Jamie nor the BBC use cheddar, though I think Jamie said it was OK to do if you didn't have any other cheese on the programme he STOLE from Jack.

In her own words - She is untrained. She is irreverent. She is a maverick. She is a tosser. The Italians will just have to learn to move with the culinary times.
