Sitting feeling tired after a day in the Black Country telling stories. An early start to avoid the snarl up on the M5 road works. Only went wrong once on my way to the school-maybe one day I will invest in a Sat nav.

Lovely school and I was working mainly with the youngest children (Nursery and Reception) so you can imagine I had to be very visual and I did leap around quite a bit. The school also had Ofsted in and I only once bumped into an inspector while moving around the school.

We went to the Everyman yesterday and watched Moon Tiger with Jane Asher in. Very moving story and Jane was outstanding in the lead role. The original story was from a Penelope Lively novel. Eyes watered on a few occasions.

Next week I hope to get back to writing again.
