Rumours of college closure

Today I met Megan and baby Maura for the first time since November. I honestly don’t know where the time goes to?! We went to a lovely cafe called The Workshop. It is out in the middle of nowhere near the airport and the soup and sandwiches were delicious....as were the caramel squares that we got to take away!

After lunch, it was straight home to be interviewed on Skype by a researcher from Trinity who is doing his thesis on the topic of the value that PhD qualified teachers can bring to schools. I spent an hour and a half being interviewed, but it was an interesting chat and it covered a subject that’s close to my heart, obviously!

After this it was down to training at the Mardyke with St Finbarrs. The head coach said that the current advice from the AAI is to proceed with training and our session tonight was 5 x 1km reps. I managed three of the reps as I’m still on the comeback trail since being sick.

Peter and I were meant to go to Tesco after my training but I was tired and he was working, so we didn’t. By the time I was going to bed though, I was already regretting our decision not to go, as an email had come through from my manager to say that the closure of our college is imminent! Feels like things are ramping up now!Read more
