So long and thanks for all the fish.

Although I'm officially going back to my roots as a half-arsed flexitarian as of next week. The other day I went to the cafe, having forgotten to pick up my packed lunch in the morning rush, and I thought 'at least I won't have to eat ham and cheese again.' I ordered a salmon y queso tosta, and lo did they indeed bring me a ham and cheese one. (Jamon/salmon - as I wryly muttered to myself).

Other than that fiasco, I'm sad to be almost leaving. The school have been so kind and welcoming to us. It really is a lovely school, and it has a genuine sense about it of that overused political buzzword/sometime integral ingredient of human wellbeing: community. Today our supervisor took us out for lunch and I will miss her and the other teachers for their humour and light heartedness which is never far away even when they're under pressure. The kids have been very sweet towards me, and I'm very grateful to have worked with so many cool indivduals.

It's been great getting to know everyone from Chester onwards, it's been so much fun being around you all and I've learnt a lot from the conversations we've had. Onwards and upwards (not long now till it stays brighter for longer!).

Peace,

Toby
