    I just have much nothing to say at the moment. The house sale continues to rumble on at the moment. The buyer wants more surveys done on the house which is annoying me a little as I just want t get on with the purchase but in this market the buyer calls the shots.


    Work isn't any better - they put an alcoholic who can't read, write and has zero maths in my higher level class today. That's like putting a four year old into a university class and expecting (a) the poor student, (b) the already stressed out teacher (c) the other students to 'make allowances'. It's all about money ultimately, they get money for accepting him and even more if I can manage to squeeze some exam results from him near the end of the twelve weeks he is with me. Meanwhile my brighter students are left sitting waiting for me to get round to see how they are doing. It's common practice in private training companies to do this but just because it is common practice doesn't mean it is okay - it stinks, it really does.


    Having said all of that though I am doing my best to rise above it. I'm getting as much done as I can and helping all the students as much as I can - these places only survive because of the good intentions of the teacher/trainers like me.


    Hmm... something brighter to finish on...


    I'm doing the first class of the Indian Head Massage course on Saturday. I am really looking forward to that. It will be an intensive course but it will be so good to be a student again and especially great to be back at Athena and surrounded by healers.


    While looking for some information on Indian Head Massage I came across this website - do you think that someone has put a foreign language through an online translation mincer???
