Our plans for the summer got hastily rewritten when I decided that I was going to do as little driving as possible. I might not have done any damage to my back, but it was blooming sore.
St Brendan of the Spine said “Walk!” So I did. All over Sheffield. We did the Sheffield [...]

I made the first of two visits this year to the English Institute for Sport. Sadly these two days are possibly the most sedentary of the year for me. Sport. I’m doing it wrong.
I decided that I would like to be fitter, so I started to do a lot more exercise. Did I [...]

June was a fantastic month. Mr TLC became a grandfather, easily the most memorable and important event of the month for us. We also celebrated Mr TLC’s birthday and spent an entire month being social gadflies; largely because the Broomhill festival was better than ever, we enjoyed concerts, a treasure hunt and the architecture [...]

In May I binged.
For a whole month I binged on books, which was great fun. It felt very self indulgent. It might just have to become an annual event for me.
I found myself feeling a tad jealous of Mr TLC, who was just over halfway through what we had started referring to [...]

April saw our first visit to still newish the Carling Academy.
And the first pictures with my new camera Shame it turned out to be faulty But Canon sorted it in record time with no arguments, so I’ll let them off
But the last decently cooked meal for a while. I like salad, [...]

March was quite exciting actually. Why? Because we went to The Moon! Only so we could try to out-do each other with lunar puns of course, but actually we had a nice afternoon.
We left saying we would have to go back, but as it turned out that was not to be – The [...]

February is always a very busy and very enjoyable month for us, containing as it does my birthday and a half term holiday. I have now, apparently, reached the age when life begins. I don’t know about that, but it was definitely a case of cake begins. I ate quite a lot of the [...]

We had huge fun in January, but there were very few events that really stand out: just lots of walking, nice meals, nights out with friends. Sounds good to me, I’ll be happy with many months like that.
At the end of January, my Mum celebrated her 70th birthday. Blimey, that sounds quite, erm, [...]

I used to have a good friend called Malcolm. (I really did – that’s his actual, genuine, real name – a first for this blog.) Sadly, these days I’d have to place Malcolm on a list of former friends. We didn’t fall out or anything, it was just one of those drifted separate ways [...]

Five random things that have happened since I started blogging:1. I have outed myself.
Strange but true. I decided that since I sometimes write about school, the best thing was to just tell the headteacher what I was doing. So I went to see him and outed myself as a not-particularly-anonymous Blogger (frankly, anyone [...]

The real three-legged cat
Welcome! Hi, I'm Lois Lindemann. Welcome to my blog!
This is where I blither on about life, the universe and everything - sometimes even three-legged cats.
I am: a resident of Sheffield (it's been my home town for more than 20 years), a Londoner, a teacher of maths and ICT and a student of French.
I like: cats, Sheffield, walking, doing the pub quiz, maths, cooking, reading, red wine, theatre, weekends in London, cycling, eating out, museums, gardening, going to the cinema, real ale, learning French and spending far too much time online. (My partner, Mr TLC, says this is making me sound like a lonely hearts ad. Oh well.)
Any opinions expressed in this blog are my own, I don't claim to speak for anyone else in education or outside of it. If you disagree, feel free to comment!
