 Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: December 9th, 2009  Posted in: Life Tags for this post: My Life | Random Musings | The Job.  - (Comments are closed) Oh my, I’ve been rather quiet here of late. Can I blame work, or shall I go straight for a plea of insanity?
Anyhoo, I haven’t evaporated/been kidnapped by aliens/fallen down a well. I am perfectly fine, just doing too much for my own good (as usual).
However, I am going to be making a […]
 Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: November 6th, 2009  Posted in: Everything Tags for this post: Random Musings.  - (Comments are closed) I’ve been getting rather a lot of email lately. For some reason a great many people have suddenly gained the erroneous impression that I would like to carry adverts/endorse products/sell my soul at the crossroads.
Just so there’s no confusion:
I don’t do ads. Frankly I consider myself lucky that Google/Blogger doesn’t force the issue. […]

(a big hat tip to The Clever Sheep.)
If that’s not enough, try this one:
Love it. Now, what gadget or gimmick do I install in my classroom for maximum effect?

“Hello,” I said in my best spooky voice, “I’m calling you from the future.”
Well, France is an hour in front you know. Surely that’s the future?
 Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: July 1st, 2009  Posted in: Uncategorized Tags for this post: My Life | Random Musings. Comments are closed Blimey has it been that long since I wrote a *proper* post? Ahem.
Anyway, hellooo!
June is over, which means my *cough* part time paper round is finished (although this year I get a bonus extra round, starting next week, but enough of that kind of talk), so I can actually blog again.
Actually, my […]
 Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: June 4th, 2009  Posted in: Uncategorized Tags for this post: My Life | Random Musings.  - (Comments are closed) We went to vote today.
I have never seen such a ludicrously long ballot paper. I had never even heard of some of the parties on it. It was like being in the supermarket: masses of brands, but very little choice.

“I was born in London,” I replied.
“Really?” Now at this point I thought I was going to get one of those ‘I never knew that you were a blooming southerner’ type responses. (The fact that I have resided in the Norf for […]

Then she put the answer on hold for just a moment in order to share a far more interesting thought: “When anything begins with ‘basically’, you just know it’s going to complicated, don’t you?”
 Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: May 31st, 2009  Posted in: Uncategorized Tags for this post: Mr TLC | Random Musings | Reminiscing.  - (Comments are closed) My action-packed half-term holiday has included not one, but two visits to the rather splendid Weston Park Museum.
I’ve been writing some materials for a school trip to the museum, hence the double visit. Yesterday, whilst I wandered around the mostly science-y bit (note use of highly technical vocabulary), checking things and bemoaning the fact […]
