    A noble profession imo. Many great ones out there who helped me when others had given up on me when I was in a lot of trouble as a teenager.

    Secondary- metalwork and engineering. I like it but I'm the only one in the school so I've a serious workload come project time.

    Where it is really handy is I can run the farm for my mother.

    Head is fine. Had a few bottles at home after but the live music was nice. Cattle in one meadow were looking to get out this morning so no rest for the wicked.

    I'm working on a school at the minute and I'm surprised at the amount of time some of the teachers are in for during the summer .
    If I don't get the finger out they might get an extra week off !!!

    Hope you're not in our local school, new school being built, in fairness to the principal she has been in nearly every day during the holidays. New schooll wont be ready for when kids go back, so there will be bedlam for a while.

    No I'm in Conemara, the board dragged their heels over signing contracts so we were 3 weeks later starting than we needed . It will really be down to the wire

    Am I right in thinking that these dvds are kind of like a documentary following the grass season of a group of contractors?
