Just for general wonderings…
‘Turtles All The Way Down’ by John Green
Teenage Fiction.
The blurb says the book is about a sixteen-year-old girl called Aza who is trying to track down a fugitive billionaire. Sounds like teenage crime fiction right? But it is nothing of the sort, in a good way. It’s all about Aza and her compulsive thoughts and how she overcomes them.
Well worth a read.
October’s daily exercise is still going. Tonight: a very gentle club run around Beccles.
Resource making tonight: a ‘A Christmas Carol’ question grid for my year 11s in the morning.

‘Fitter October’ continues. My regular 30min swim at the end of the day.
It was tricky to get the exercise in today. It was again squeezed in between a year 11 revision session at the end of the day, and a Samaritans duty. But it was done: 20min hill session on the treadmill.
And today’s picture…
‘Fitter October’ is still going strong. It was 20min weights followed by 20min treadmill, squeezed in between getting in from work, having dinner and attending a Samaritans Branch Meeting.
As for picture of the day? I returned to my classroom after lunch to find my year 11 tutor group had been thinking up alliterative day names.
Went out for a run lunchtime. 5.5 miles around the village. Felt good.
