A Day in School
This week Tara has given us a topic for the Gallery that is very current – Back to School.
For those of you who do not know about me (um – why not pray?) I used to be a head teacher. I believed firmly in the fun element of education & took any opportunity to get the children dressing up. Now before you think how philanthropic, let me assure you that it was for my benefit! This picture is of me on World Book Day. I’m not going to tell you straight away who I was or what the book was (guesses in comments below please; answer next week!)
As you gaze in wonder & puzzlement please note:
Footwear – for those of you who watch Waterloo Road can you see where the head got the idea?
Nourishment – it is a staff room – what do you expect?!
The Mug – for those with extremely good eyesight it is from the Guinness brewery in Dublin & yes, it was mine!
Look on the face – it was my ‘Don’t you dare take my photo dressed like this with my mouth full’ look!
Now be a good person & leave your guess of who I am in this picture. When you’ve done that pop over the Sticky Fingers & read some more great entries! (Note to self :- you must not enjoy using that headteacher tone quite so much!)
Must be The Vicar of Dibley. LOL, my HTs never did stuff like this. Great picture 🙂
I’m going for Geraldine Granger too (not sure she’s a literary character though!)
Great fun post and photo. I can’t think of a literary character you resemble here…………..hmmmm no I don’t know ! X
Brilliant. I would agree with others about Vicar of Dibley but I thought as it was World Book day you need to be a book character. Please confirm.
The Vicar of Dibley was the first thing that sprung to my mind too! Love it!
You’ve gotta be a slim Vicar of Dibley surely?
Can’t EVER remember my headteacher’s being like you…no wonder school was so dull!!
I would say a thin version of Vicar of Dibley.
no no no no no idea
Has to be the vicar od Dibley
You’re the Vicar of Dibley – obviously!! Pass the celebrations over please… xx
I did wonder about the Head’s choice of footwear on Waterloo Road. My teenage Dark Princess loves that show. We watch it together – mummy/teenagedaughter bonding!
I’m going to have a serious think about who you are and come back *clueless* but you look seriously silly 😀 I wish my old head had dressed up like that I wouldn’t have been nearly so scared of her!
