Day 55 More Masks

Notes for new readers - as this is a diary the first entry is the last, so you get to know 'who done it' before the crime is committed! This is a pain but can't be helped. After a week of entries the scrolling will stop and if you want to venture further click on 'OLDER POSTS' and read until you get to the first entry 'The Day Before Day 1

Made more masks today. I gave Sheila two from yesterday's batch. 
Picked more rose petals and started the process for Rose Petal Jelly. 
Otherwise nothing to report. Usual chores and watched some old 'Waking the Dead' while knitting.

The British Medical Association has thrown its weight behind teaching unions opposing the government’s push to reopen schools in England, as the debate over millions of pupils returning to classrooms grew increasingly acrimonious.

No 10 reinforced its drive to reopen primary schools for those in reception, year 1 and year 6 in two weeks’ time, warning that prolonged closures risked damaging children’s education.

But the BMA – the UK’s largest doctors’ union – said in a letter to the National Education Union on Friday that the number of coronavirus infections remained too high to allow them to run safely. Teaching unions had been “absolutely right” to urge caution and prioritise testing before reopening schools on 1 June.

This was an emergency  Christmas jumper. The evening before last day of term before Christmas a few years ago nine year old Ben announced that he needed a Christmas jumper for tomorrow as all pupils were allowed to wear one.. He didn't have one. Nana to the rescue. I suggested he drew a picture of what he would like on a Christmas jumper on some coloured felt. We cut this out and sewed it onto a plain jumper, added a few buttons as baubles and there you have it! Don't you just love the snowman!

TOT ZIENS!  STAY HOME! DON"T GO BACK TO SCHOOL!
