Snuffle....



How's this for a bit of Trade Union zeitgeist?
I wonder how many people about to go on strike then get a raging cold which pins them down to their sofa and laptop and prevents them from storming the Winter Palace?

That's right. Full on Manmonia.

The day before the strike.

(although to be honest we had negotiated a 'no supply teachers-no picket line so there would have been no actual presence at the school gate anyway, Any school with a picket line out front must have had a near fatal communication breakdown between Head and the teachers, but hey, that's not the point!)

Hmmm. You get the flu on the eve of the strike, eh? Reminds me of John Major having to go to the dentist the day of the crucial leadership vote that did for Thatcher.

Can't have it both ways, Mr. I'm for the workers but wouldn't mind being management....
