au revoir

This is a bit of a this and that sort of post.

The last weeks at school before the summer break is always a little crazy....
and this year was no exception.
Fun with class 4 and some light sensitive paper
lots of playing outside on the field with class 1 and 2
and a trip to Eureka in Halifax with class 3
We went on the tram and train
It was very busy with lots of other schools visiting.




Our train driver coming home was very friendly.
We had a good clear out at school and I rescued this lovely Street map of Paris.

printed in 1959. It is huge but very detailed.
I plan to get it framed.....one day!


On Golden Afternoon we made fruit salad

and paper boats


and I received lots of lovely cards and gifts at the end of term....bang goes the diet!

and I have been enjoying Diane's Non-alcoholic Pimms




and of course Prince George Alexander Louis has been born
and I spent a little time arranging my drop earrings onto this lovely jewellery stand Diane made for me....I didn't realise I owned so many! Thank you Diane I love it.

I had to make a trip into Rochdale today and found this Sheep in the floral display near Touchstones.
and I had to pop in and look at this lovely exhibition.
The garden is being neglected somewhat.


And as to the title of this post.....
a clue



we are off to pastures new......two weeks in France for our summer holiday. My lovely mother in law will be here to look after Lucy, house and tomatoes.
Back on August 10th

  3. All the flowers are so very pretty, and a lot of lovely gifts from the children. But the thing I like best is your earring stand I was talking to mum yesterday about what I should do with all my charms and now I know.

  7. I'm so glad you included your Eureka trip in this post as every time we come to Yorks I plan to take the boys there (also so I can visit Piece Hall) but we never make it - it looks great fun! I hope you have a lovely holiday and look forward to seeing the photos on your return. Bethx

  13. Hi Lyn! I just became your 301 follower!I accidentally found your blog and really liked it! The last days at school are really busy, I can tell as I'm a teacher myself, however so rewarding! I really liked the earring stand as well as your earring collection as well as the Paris map! If I had one I would put it in a frame and hang it!
