A Parent’s Perspective from a Ross High Mum
This morning’s list:
Send off forms for school travel passes (oops - should have been on last week’s list. Oh well).
Book our holiday. ;-) Started. And we’re probably going here: Dolphin Bay Divers (among other things)
Tax the car :-( Why is the simplest thing never simple?
Go through tender application. A big one. It has to go [...]

So that would be GP1, GP2 and GPD.

Another of those pleasant, restful weekends with lots of time in the garden? I wish!
