Just an ordinary day in Tewkesbury as Mr Blobby takes the children to school! Actually it was a mini practise (school) run, which also aimed to raise awareness of Sport Relief. It was my turn to take part in the Team Honk Relay. Dressed in a Mr Blobby costume I was to take the Baton from Sarah in Gotherington … Read more
Longer school hours and shorter school holidays well about time too I say Michael Gove! It has been apparent for a while now that I am not alone in needing my children to be at school a lot more than they already are. I mean they are really at home far too much aren’t they. … Read more
