Re: GCHQ Christmas Card

ok, so no-one has finished this yet and there are only 2 days to go... I can't believe none of you have solved it.

The designer of the puzzle has said 'my one and only clue is: it's not as abstract as you think'.

I know I wouldn't have a chance, but surely one of you can do it!

Re: Today I've mostly bin...

.. meant to post this at the weekend. Have mostly been playing with lego :-) Don't tell Scurra, but we got Thomas the Doctor Who lego set. He deserved a prize as he got the Head Teacher's award for most improved in maths last term (and that's after he got the Headteacher's award for his maths last d...

Re: Merry Christmas

I will agree that Christmas has come round faster than ever, but it's always my support that time doesn't stand still - it means summer will arrive just as quickly!

Merry Christmas one and all :-)

Thomas had a wonderful time and I suspect Grandad especially is very, very tired!

Lally - 15?? When did that happen?

The other day, Thomas was playing with a foam dagger and hit me on the shoulder. He said 'I didn't hurt you Mummy, I just cut your head off'....

... appreciating why I sing in a choir. We're performing Carmina Burana next Saturday and rehearsed tonight with the soloists. It sounded amazing! Ok, so the tenors missed an entry, and the men didn't quite have the confidence at one point, but it's something else to sing in something that is that g...

Re: Passing the time

I must admit I got a list of possible elements and when I get a new element I scan through to see if I can work out which others I can make from it. The nerd one was quite fun to find, I'll admit :-)

Re: Passing the time

I've been playing 'Little Alchemy' which is a fun little game - you start with 4 elements (earth, air, fire, water) and combine them to create more. Some combinations are quite obvious (fire and water make steam, fire and human makes fireman), others not so (sky and cheese makes moon :-) ) There's 5...

Re: Today I've mostly bin...

It was broken cloud and I have been told that a crescent sun was visible at one point... However, our co...
