M is for Mums who run!

Channel M (local tv channel for Manchester) came to film our Buggyfit class last week, and here's the result! It's in a series called "Style in the City", which shamelessly rips off the original Channel 4 series of a similar name ...
Buggyfit on Style in the City
You might spot a woman with a particularly stylish patch of white hair and striped blue jogging pants running like a gazelle across your screen.
You'll need a recent version of Adobe Flash to play it. In order to avoid the tedious stuff about spotty dresses, skip forward to about the 6 minute mark (runs for about 4 mins in total).

It must be nice to change out of your usual designer stillettos and cocktail dresses for while. Margaritas all round afterwards, though, I expect?

Full marks to Katy's new class teacher, who has taught them 2 new things in her first week (Katy used to complain that they only taught her things she already knew).

You then read out a series of statements, and the children have to go and stand in front of the sign which they think is right for the statement. I could be wrong, but this looks suspiciously like they are being taught to think critically for themselves! Just a pity that the spelling needs a bit more work.

A tooth! A tooth! Clearly visible and razor-sharp. Sorry, but photographing a baby's tooth is like trying to bath a cat, so you'll just have to believe me. And just to confound us, after nights of behaving like an unsettled newborn, last night she went straight down and slept 11 hours without so much as a whimper.
