Functional skills. That's what I am reduced to passing on to the great unwashed. How to read; how to write; how to talk or you don't get gcse English. I wish to declare my disinterest immediately.

They have changed how to do paragraphs. That's it: I've outlived my usefulness; outstayed my welcome; over-educated myself for current needs. Which are functional, but not handwritten. They are multi-choiced and cross curricular and so far from what English means to me that I don't want to do it any more. I need a blue pig*.

I've been to a meeting. Can you tell? The Government has pronounced and we must obey.

It's hot, I'm uncomfortable and I have 5 mediocre classes and a thrilling hour of setting to look forward to tomorrow. Roll on the holidays.

*blue pig is today's ancient word. It means a place where whiskey is surreptitiously sold.
