Art class tonight...I hope. Last three,,two were cancelled and one the
school was closed.
So it has been three weeks since last one and that only lasted about 15
mins, cos some one collapsed and they had to get an ambulance. The student
was ok she has those epileptic fits where you just pass out.
So hope all is well tonight.

I thought the police were saying don't travel unless absolutely necessary,
due to the snow, ice and freezing conditions further up north Bill. So
take care.

I do hope you get a proper class this time Bill especially if you have to
make a journey to get there in this cold weather!
Take care.

We have no snow but very cold. The school is about 15 mins walk..
The heating had been turned of in the community learning section. We were
rather cold to say the least. Resulting im me having a very pained night in
bed and stiff painfull joints this morn.

I shall be in touch with them this morn to have a word. There was no staff
there only tutors for the two courses that were on. The coffee machine has
been out of order for 5 weeks now.
Our tutor was muttering about the funding not bin sorted for adult
education.

Sounds about par for the course Bill. When i w*rked in the scientific
civil service (no - it's not a complete oxymoron) we were allowed to go home
at Monday lunchtimes if the office temperature had not risen above freezing.
The heating was never turned on until the start time on Monday morning.
Also the heating was never allowed from 1st May until 1st September whatever
the weather conditions.

I'm talking early 1960s Mike, and scientific civil service employees were a
hardy lot. :)

In that case the minimum temperature was 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

But were they exempt from the Shops, Offices and Railway Premises Act?

I suppose not, but we were a happy crowd who enjoyed our R & D. :)
