April Fool's

No, I didn't fall for any April Fool's Day jokes.  Year 8 tried hard, but I worked out what was happening immediately...  My class went to the other teacher and the other class tried coming to my classroom.  It might have worked if I hadn't marked their roll immediately beforehand, arrived at the room before them, and happen to know every student in that year group by name.  When I finally did get my class, they pinched my pencil case and iBook!  Problem is, the guilty party usually giggles the most and can easily be identified...

I liked the Virgin BBQ sausage credit card ad and MINI Cabrio Roof Down Squad letter in this morning's Sydney Morning Herald (pages 3 & 7 in my edition).  And MuggleNet did a great "closed down by court order" page, and I  can't wait for "Harry Potter and the Pillar of Storge" to be released in just another 4 hours!

I can finally confirm I will be moving house during the upcoming school holidays.  And it was no April Fools joke to be told by my ISP (and then have it confirmed by Telstra) that you can't even request the relocation of an ADSL service until *after* you relocate the telephone service and have dial tone at the new location.  So I can look forward to at least five days without ADSL during the change over.  Bugger!  I suppose I might be too busy packing/unpacking boxes to notice...
