Children are noisy - especially when you give them radios
So we did our first school visit today - 120 kids in two lots for half an hour each. Trevor did the first bunch, and I did the second as he had another appointment. I'd like to think that I was the more interesting - I didn't bother to mention the CDEM Act 2002 - 8-year-olds don't give a stuff. They do, however, love to play with walkie-talkies. I effectively had them playing Simon Says at long range around the school grounds. Kept them well occupied. And some of them stuck around after the lunch bell to ask questions, so I guess that's a good sign.
Kids these days also have interesting names: Romeo, Tarquin, Heavenlee, Aanika, Cherrish, Devine.
