Comments are closedBlack Cat loves Christmas. Christmas is when he gets dozens of extra toys. We don’t go in for the buying presents for our cats thing, but we do put temptation in their way. We have a Christmas tree. I spent yesterday in a race with Black Cat, I was trying to decorate the tree, whilst […] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: December 15th, 2007 Posted in: Uncategorized Tags for this post: Books. Comments are closed“How much?”“£1.95 million.”“That’s almost unbelievable. No child will ever get near that book will they?”I was so confident in this prediction. I calmly assumed that some investor had bought J.K.Rowling’s hand written book The Tales of Beedle the Bard and that it was heading for a future locked in a vault, unseen and unread.Wrong again.

Comments are closedThe Winter Garden may be one of Sheffield’s newer buildings, but it is certainly one the best loved. When the plans for a giant greenhouse in the heart of the city were first published, they didn’t create much of a stir, possibly because the local population were still suffering from development fatigue after […] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: December 11th, 2007 Posted in: Uncategorized Tags for this post: The Job. 3 comments - more welcome! - (Comments are closed)Today I was given a little gadget that might just transform some of my lessons. It’s a tangle. Made from 18 plastic 90 degree arcs that swivel where they join, you pick it up and you can’t help but twist it, bend it and generally fiddle about with it. I’d heard of these, but today […] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: December 10th, 2007 Posted in: Uncategorized Tags for this post: Films. Comments are closedFinally, we made it to see The Golden Compass. The film was going to have to be fairly amazing to live up to my highly elevated expectations and by and large it delivered.The book is long, has many characters and a complex plot, so some changes and omissions were inevitable.

Comments are closedWhen Mr TLC and I go anywhere there are certain things that I just cannot resist. I drive him mad by taking zillions of photos and buying far too many postcards.
