I would think it could work best in small groups possibly having a class split into small groups and cycling round different activities/experiments. This would make it far easier to control the kids and keep them safe

Javid seems to be FAR more certain that the 19th July WILL be the day covid restriction wind down Handcock (checks spelling and spaces) was more 'data not dates' I was feeling better with the data based stuff government people saying dates are certian seems worrying I like data and science

What are they hoping to gain from the investment?? and how are they dealing with class behaviour control when the kids are all (supposed) to have headsets on? and what about H&S when kids have a VR world in front of them but the real world under their feet?? I'm not doubting it - it is just that a company I had some dealings with some years ago was looking into it and took the opportunity to pick my brains as a techy teacher - these were the problemn we came up with After, of course, content and content generation I shall watch this thread with interest!

Just watching Wimbledon Apparently Andy Murray is playing with a metal hip TBH I think he would do better with a tennis racket but I suppose he knows best

I can imagine initial contact being made via a personal email address e.g. maybe Mrs mikeprice meets someone who is selling something that she think would be useful in a school I work in but she doesn;t know my school email address - so she give the contact my personal email they contact me via that - so - being responsible I reply from my school address - and all the negotiation and stuff goes through that e.g. when I left my last school all the communication was on my school email. Hence, when I left the school still had access to all the negotiation between me and the suppliers. If I had used my personal address they would have no access to these negotiations. And I would be perfectly free to delete all the emails whenever I want Same applies to MPs

this picture is Carp Ok maybe not carp but not trout and not pike after that I get lost

Spots....

Oh 0 this is back again OK White

It's OK - I don't think anyone noticed

It appears that our Grandson (4 and SEN) is having to isolate Turned out that someone in his pre-school tested positive last weekend but still came into work Monday and Tuesday!!! Hence whole place has had to close

Granson (4) is having to isolate because a kid at his pre-school tested positive over the weekend but still came to pre-school on Monday and Tuesday some people !!!! for some reason his sister and Mum were still OK to go to a Baby Shower this afternoon I'm not sure why this is OK - but 'lots of people' are saying it is OK

On topic how about a valve amp that takes input from a streaming source https://www.amazon.co.uk/Nobsound-NS-08E-Integrated-Amplifier-Headphone/dp/B01LY19JX4/ref=asc_df_B01LY19JX4/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=310767517131&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1076137491928759198&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1007113&hvtargid=pla-562082206249&psc=1 or so I assume - I lost the will to live reading the details - but it sound likely!!!

The last school I worked in has windowd that would open by about 1-2 inches not really effective in terms of air flow - and as a lot of the female teacher were 'of a certain age' the the lack of air flow was noticed many times In these times this needs to be addressed - but at the end of the day - we also need to stop kids 'escaping' ( and Yes I have seen that) and 'random' people using a window to enter the school but then - this should have been part of school design for decades -I can remember hot summer days from when I was at school and I'm pretty sure people have had differing and varying temperature needs for a long time a classroom with 30 kids plus a few adults having 2 windows that open by 2 inches each has been a dumb idea for decades!!

Yea Gods I though laptops were jammed into a small space hate to think how gummed up the filters are!!!! (we all know what computer in D&T Woodwork look like inside!!)

Just to be clear do you mean me or the person I was linking to 'some' mods may have opinions both ways

I have saved it for anti frog purposes in future!!!!

Watched 'Time' really effective - great TV

just catching up

****True facts**** 1. In the 1400s a law was set forth in England that a man was allowed to beat his wife with a stick no thicker than his thumb. Hence we have 'the rule of thumb.' 2. Many years ago in Scotland , a new game was invented. It was ruled 'Gentlemen Only... Ladies Forbidden'... and thus the word GOLF entered into the English language. 3. Each king in a deck of playing cards represents a great king from history: Spades - King David, Hearts - Charlemagne, Clubs -Alexander the Great, Diamonds - Julius Caesar 4. In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes. When you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase......... 'goodnight, sleep tight.' 5. It was the accepted practice in Babylon 4,000 years ago that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer and because their calendar was lunar based, this period was called the honey month, which we know today as the honeymoon. 6. Since 1966,England fans have said they are going to win the cup at the start of every football competition, hence the phrase ‘deluded t***’.

Yeah - I'm just worried that new people are dragging me into something already??????? I mean - I get into enough trouble on my own - and with the help of the old lot new people helping out could get amphibian!!!
