Bobby Dazzler returned today, at a rather excellent school. It has received the money it needed for some massive improvements, and the facilities and building are excellent. It is in a "rough area", but the behaviour of the kids was the best we have witnessed, and the teachers were all happy to confirm that the surroundings have made a massive difference. I also got talking to one of the senior teachers who seemed keen on me starting an after school club! Small acorns can grow rather quickly can they not? We had an hour at home before I was called upon to another school to reprise my Bobby role. This time we found a different atmosphere at the school which was rather old and tired. Typically, this was the one presentation that was being watched by the people in charge of the project, and of course we had technical problems. It was a frustrating afternoon. Back in time for the evening session, and we have decided not to do the play that we have been working on. I love this group of kids that they could be so honest and open about their feelings, and the mature way in which they did it. Onwards and upwards.
