education

whilst we were at wonderful Larmer tree, Miss Doucy from school phoned to say Clara could have a place on the Hilltop farm trip next year, which she is terribly excited about. "She''l be so pleased when I tell her", I enthused. "Right now, she's just having a tattoo applied!". Then, weakly, remembering that I had taken the children out of school for 2 days for this festival, I tried adding "It's an educational tattoo...". Fail.
