Well, it's been a busy few weeks, but for a change there has been a bit more play and less work. Apparently, Britain is the only country whihc doesn't get blistering hot summers- so it begs the question for me really, why do I keep moving away to these other countroes with skin like mine?! Yep, the sun came out in full force about 3 weeks ago and hence so did all the inhabitants of Brno. It all kicked off on the Saturday really. Trace was ...

Well, I thought I might as well update you again while I'm sitting here off sick for the rest of the day. So, let's start with Friday. I always like Fridays and not just because it's the weekend but it's always a day where everyone's in a good mood. I teach a 3 hour block on Friday mornings from 8am. My first class contains a (very) small group of older guys who are very quiet and hard work sometimes but they're generally nice blokes. My s...
