Phew!

Finally finished work! And on my first 'day off' I didn't even get a lie-in 'cos I had to spend all day at an antenatal class. The NCT are wonderful, although it's all terribly educated white middle classes. So what do I do on my second day off? Go back to work and finish off all the bits I didn't manage.

Here's my Facebook post for yesterday: Quakers don't usually make a fuss about the twenty-fifth day of Twelfth Month, so I thought I might darken the doors of my local Anglican church for midnight mass and some hearty carol singing. Turns out they are not blessed(?) with a live organist but are dependent on prerecorded music tracks, which are usually just a tad too fast and so rigidly metrical that congregations often fail to keep in sync. The machine gave us only 4 verses of Once in Royal , although 6 were printed, and during Silent Night the music was so much faster than our preferred tempo that someone wisely switched it off after just 2 lines. How wonderfully appropriate, given the origins of that carol.
