My life has seen a highly exciting development. John has got a job in Dewsbury! He will, for the first time, be paid to teach English at a school which is not among the bottom 20 in the UK!

Thanks, tho anonymous comments keep life interesting! :-D
We'll probably move at the end of july, after John has finished his year at Sir Frank Markham school. Then we'll spend about a month living with his parents in Cleethorpes, to save a month's rent, then move to Wakefield or thereabouts in late august.
