24.5 fish bar

I finally arranged a job – fish bar, which will mean hot, hard and long work throughout Summer. Still, a job’s a job. Only £3 a day to start, but I don’t expect to be on that long.
Countdown starts now for the exams, which are only four weeks away. Most people do only cursory revision for lower sixth exams, but to me it’s a matter of principle – I’ll work, but I am not going to flog myself to death. They should be quite enjoyable, especially English. The one complaint I have to make about the English syllabus is that it can easily – as it offers no opportunity for creative writing – breed numbers of pedants. Much as I like Steve, he is rapidly heading in that direction.
