Hooray. I Have Something To Do!

[Tilly2]

Since being made redundant from my part time job, I have had far too much time on my hands, most of which has been spent on AB.
However, tomorrow, I am beginning a voluntary position at one of the local special schools. It has taken what seems like an age for my DBS certificate to arrive but now it's here and I can go back to doing something I love. I'm very excited.
So, much as I enjoy everyone's company on here, I'm pleased that I have something else to do instead.

well done you. What is DBS?

[SlackAlice]

Congratulations ☺☺☺

I hope that doesn't mean your abandoning us, we have special needs as well.

[Tilly2]

Jno, a DBS certificate is from the Disclosure and Barring Service. It show you have been 'checked out' and have no criminal convictions. It's a safeguarding procedure.

[Tilly2]

Alice, I will still be around but it means that I will have a reason to have a wash on Wednesdays and Thursdays. :-)

[baza]

go for it, shame that you think we are only second best, xx.

[gness]

Yes...and Slack's are very special....☺

Good for you, Tilly...you will love that I know....x

[boxtops]

well done, tilly - that's what used to be CRB checks, isn't it? I bet you still find time to come on here "in between" though!

[cupid04]

Congratulations and celebrations......Well done tilly2. Will you miss us a little bit? xx

[Tilly2]

Yes, boxy. It has replaced the CRB check. It still takes an age to come through though.

I will find time for AB. There's always that time between throwing the dinner in the oven and actually eating it.
Oh.........Creative Curriculum tomorrow. Yeah!

I always assumed you were perfectly coiffed 24/7, but can understand the special 'scrub up' for Wednesday and Thursday.

gness

Blush! "How did you know my special needs?"

[Tilly2]

Gness, you know what I feel about teaching. You are dead right I'll enjoy it.

[gness]

Oh...just a shot in the dark, Slack.....;-

[Tilly2]

Alice, I'm actually a bit of a scruff bag. Jeans and a sweatshirt are my default clothes. Clean though.

[Tilly2]

Alice, do you have an 'ism'?

[Tilly2]

Thank you, triggerhippy.

[petal54]

welldone,you'll find it rewarding ,enjoy

[gness]

Tilly...You should see Slack's ism!.......:-o.....xx

[Tilly2]

Gness, do you think he can do 'tinypics' than I could have a gander at it.

Can you, Alice.

[Tilly2]

Forgot the question mark!
