Silence

This is it!  I have lost my voice.  You thought the day would never come but I am silenced.

Truth is I do still have some voice but, like a dying battery, only enough for half a sentence at a time.  This did put great pressure on my students and they responded magnificently, I have never been so proud as I was today when they interpreted my squeaks and gestures and communicated with me, in English, and without losing their composure.  We even did some pronunciation work (thank god for interactive whiteboards).

I somehow doubt I'll be doing anything exciting this weekend but my study does need a damn good sorting out so all I've got to do is resist the lure of the internet - I am doomed!
