I am getting nervous about tomorrow. It is our maths fun day. Its the first one I've organised so I want it to go well. We have lots of activities planned. I am going to do Tangrams (I have made some huge pieces out of card), Paper plane throwing, And then a problem involving moving water from one place to another using only cups and sticks (Hence the bamboo sticks) And then we have a treasure hunt organised for the afternoon.
I hope the weather holds, and it is not too windy. It will bugger up the paper planes idea otherwise.

There has been further developments in the redundancy saga. we were going to get our marching orders on July 4th (I call it Redundipendence day) which meant I could get a payout (Which I think I am entitled too) but that might have to change because of some legal advice from other parties. Its all getting more complicated.

I hate racism of any kind, as I am sure my friends do too. So when I heard these stories it really annoyed me.

A seven-year-old boy has been attacked by a racist thug because he was wearing an England football top in Scotland. Hugo Clapshaw had been enjoying a kick-about with his father in Edinburgh when a man shouted abuse and punched him.
Lothian And Borders Police branded the attack "cowardly and pathetic".
is father Damon, 34, said: "Hugo was just wearing a football top, that's all he did wrong. Has the Scotland-England rivalry come to this?"
Mr Clapshaw said the man ran up to his son in the park and shouted expletives at him.
Hugo was punched in the head before the thug turned on Mr Clapshaw, punching him to the ground and kicking him.
He said the man shouted "this is Scotland, not England".

:: Police in Aberdeen are hunting a man who attacked a disabled driver because he was wearing an England shirt and flying a St George's Cross from his car.
The man was dragged from the vehicle and punched in the head and face in what Grampian Police said was a racially-motivated attack.

I heard this story on the radio on the way home from work. But the reason that I picked up on it was because it brought back a memory that I had forgotten for many years.
When I was about 17, I had made some good Scottish friends whilst camping once. (that was a brilliant trip- but thats for another time- It involves Swedish girls). Anyway, over the summer, these friends invited me up to Scotland for a few days holiday which was really nice. But whilst there I was having a walk in a local park when i was set upon by a group of Youths. When they found out I was English they then started taunting and threatening me and verbally assaulting me. It never got physical thankfully but that may be because I ran away! I felt really scared and vulnerable- It was very unpleasant.

Anyway it's nice to know that the Scottish Government have apologised and I think it is only fair, as an English Person, to apologise for Tony Blair.
It's Tony Blair. I cannot apologise enough.
