The answer is somewhere.
Not at the beginning nor the current moment but somewhere in the last 28 years. I’ve been a teacher who has had to mind his p’s and q’s. Being a professional has been very important to me but at the same time so has my willingness to have opinions/likes/dislikes, and have the natural urge to rant/rave/generally vent! I have suppressed all of this for too long. Don’t expect a right-wing manifesto, an obscene smutfest that would threaten my job and my commitment to safeguarding the young people I work with, or a ‘secret blog’ where I post encrypted posts that blame work colleagues, parents or members of the public.
There’s more to life than negativity. I watch Good Morning Britain each morning for my dose of toxic bile that strives to blame and sack whoever they take a dislike to, backing their opinions up with tweets from the man or woman in the street. I may use the odd strong word but I was 50 last year and I do not believe I want to moan about how the world has turned to shit (1 per post).
So please join me twice a week for my thoughts, recommendations, venting or random ruminations. You’re more than welcome. Bienvenu.
