THE
CURRENT EVENTS
QUIZ
Week ending 2nd October 2020
Finished at last
For those who asked here is a before and after picture of the building work I have been going on about for the last 5 months. A crumbling 1860’s outdoor toilet and laundry block that is now a bijou one bedroomed annexe!Lovely, but is it worth £100,000 when there are only two of us now living in the 4 bedroomed main house!
The only beneficiaries are the kids as it locks in all that money for the kids when we finally die and they inherit it! Think of the holidays we could have had with that money!!!
To T.E.S usersA number of people have asked me to add them to my direct mailing list rather than them having to download the quiz from TES website.
If you want me to add you to the list then drop me an e-mail at:-
I prefer to have a school email or a mention of your school as my list has been hacked a couple of times and a school email suggests you a real user and not a hacker!
