esther got her school report today and i think it’s good.  i only say ‘think’ because i can’t really understand it, despite reading the instructions.  jane says it’s good though and she knows things, so that’s good.

my presentation went well this morning.  much positive feedback.  hoorah.

jane got told by another french teacher at her school that her kids had nice french accents

and the girls both had their violin lessons and kezia her swimming.  esther and jane had a walk at long bay at some point too

it was fish and chips for tea and i’ve spent a while on the phone to britain trying to get the funds from an ISA i closed 6 weeks ago where the first cheque got lost in transit so i asked them to pay it directly in to my UK bank account but they’ve kindly sent me a cheque again despite them agreeing not to.  ho hum.  still, they are very nice about it.  i suspect we’ll get a call in the middle of the night giving us an update as they’ll not quite get the whole time difference thing

definitely feeling cold now.  meant to be 7degrees tonight.  and it feels cold in our cardboard rented house.
