Patrick's Day Two
Wed 19th October - 7.24pm by Patrick Cosgrave
I taught for the first time here today: biology. Nerves were a-gittering, legs were a-quivering, mouth was a-blabbering but it went pretty well. I bought a club and dagger from a tribal bloke, he ripped me off but i don't care because i now own a decorative CLUB and DAGGER! 
Also a mask and stone rhino and some jewlery... it's not gone well.
Teaching's hard, really hard and Miss Riggs is right about silence in the classroom being scary, i hate it.
Miss Page say good grammar costs nothing, but it does: time.
Mr Chez ( i can't spell his name) thinks i'm an alcoholic, thanks dighe.
Last time i said the school grounds were the size of our BB court, i was wrong, more like most of the astro-turf. Which, i agree, would be nice to lend to the school here.
Hi mum, graham, jake and louis (they asked for a mentinon) hi Rowan and the girls too xx.
The beach here is scary, i don't think i'll go back anytime soon. dinner was nice. the pool is great. the band plays on too late. the water still tastes funny.

Hi Pat, XX
Happy to hear that your lesson was such a sucsess. ( I know just how you felt with the trembling with nerves, it's like solo singing in public, you get used to it eventualy) Good job you took those books! I rekon that with your 20kgs of luggage you should be prepared for anything! I hope you haven't got sun-burnt.(I hope there was enough room for all the footballs & other bits for the kids!
G, Jo & I are going to Southampton tomorrow to visit Geoff. Tammy's flown over from N.Z! Pete'll be there too so that'll be nice for Geoff, he's at home now & seems to have perked up a bit.
We also have to get ready to fly to Athens, we must leave at 5.20 am Sat! So if I dont do the blog I hope you'll understand.
It's been lovely & sunny here today but SO COLD at night, you'll need your winter duvet when you get home.
Have a great day tommorow.
Loads & loadsa love from me & everyone here that keep asking about you. Mum XXXXX
