Moving again
I'm escaping the nightmare that is my current flat - no heating/hot water, floods in the kitchen, noise on the roof, random trespassing by the landlord and occasional rodents!
Also, I heard on the radio during the week that there's a reality TV show set in a Leicester school about setting up a boys' choir. I'm intrigued. I gave a talk at that school once. They put 90 13-14 year old pupils and me into the drama studio (think of a large, windowless box, not unlike the indoor prison yard in the episode of House about the phaeochromocytoma) and then the laptop decided to crash. You can't stop talking when you have a large group of teenagers sitting on the floor in front of you! I can only imagine how much fun it must be to teach them to sing. And you should bear in mind that this school is one of the best state schools in Leicester.
