It is pouring rain this morning.

And I'm going on another field trip, this time with the Year 9's - (think 14/15 year olds). We're being dropped off at Box Hill, where each group will be issued with a map. We need to use the map to find our way back to school. It's a bit over 8 miles, apparently. Unless one gets lost. Don't know which kids are in my group, but I'm hoping there's a competent map-reader among them, because my map-reading skills are useless at best and actively counter-productive at worst.

So if this blog isn't updated in a while, it's because I'm out in the rain somewhere, holding a soggy map upside down while a group of 14 year olds whinge and whine and say their feet hurt and they're thirsty and how much further is it now?
