Changes

It wasn't just the weather that had changed overnight: from the week after next my teaching hours are being cut in half, leaving a chess board timetable that alternates between mornings and afternoons four days a week. A new full-time teacher is starting and my hours were the only ones she could take on to make up her timetable; unluckily for me, she's getting my favourite class and I still have to work Monday mornings.

On the plus side there's a chance I could teach two classes every Friday for South Tyneside Council, which will take my hours back up to three quarters of what they are now, and might end up being much more permanent than the work at the college. As surprises go, I've had a lot worse.
