I've just heard what the new GCSE Computer Science course is made up of; endless theory, some coding (in Python) but assessed with two big bang 2hr exams, one part writing code ON PAPER. How is that reflective of the real tech world? I've told my boy not to bother.

Lockdown with schools open is just a waste of time. That is where transmission is happening, where PPE is not enforced. This is just another perfect example of the inept leadership from our government. Shambles.

The boy tripped over on his new paper round this morning, twisting his ankle, so I had to step in to cover his route.
I was quietly judging all those with the Daily Fail (more than I expected) but it definitely demonstrates the demographic who still get newspapers delivered.

This is a good example of how bad it can get with digitally focused relationships. Marc & I have known each other since 2005 through several mutual interests, we know each others family arrangements, even share professional traits - and we’ve only just met.
