Shockingly, both the schools have opened today. Eldest lay in bed awaiting the world to advise her that the school was open, rather than assume it was open unless she heard otherwise. In fact Facebook was a buzz with complaints that no-one had told them what was going on. This was not of course the case. They were upset because no-one had told them what they wanted to hear! There were several instances of pupils announcing that the decision to open was “rediculous” or “ridiculus”. I would strongly suggest that there have been far too many snow days if that is the standard of spelling. Eldest has just reported to me that she is the only one who is at school in her form. I hope the School are going to question those that didn’t turn up. It is hardly an incentive for those that did make the effort. I await news that they are sending them home any minute.
In other news, I shall be venturing out into the “Blizzard” type conditions that have been reported by the local kids on Facebook in a moment. After about 2 minutes of slow last night, one or two of the young ladies were reporting 3 or 4 inches of snow....well all I can say is that if they think that is 3 or 4 inches, then they will go through life very happy.
