Awooga! Awooga! Cliche alert!
In the spirit of more regular updating, work stuff is a little better this week. Yesterday I had the first day at school-invigilation where it all went reasonably smoothly and nobody did anything particularly stupid. Oh, and my second reference for New Job from Hideous Old Job has finally arrived, I'm told, only about seven weeks after it was originally requested.
But this post is mainly because of my newest governor. The vicar of St. (Redacted)'s is automatically a member of School 1's governing body, so I sent the vicar-designate a welcome email yesterday, addressed fairly formally, as you do for people you've yet even to meet IRL, to Rev Dr (surname).
When I checked my school email today, I had a reply in which he said it was 'lovely' to hear from me, invited me to call him Steve, and signed off 'Peace'. I'm now dying to meet him and see if he's actually a full-on Trendy Vicar. Bless...
