Visits
I have been told that pastoral visits last between 30 and 45 minutes. I thought that in France I should extend that a bit. The last 2 have lasted over 5 and a half hours!!!! Very nice but very long!! My french is taking a real battering.
Also, I’m starting a mother and toddle group on Wednesday mornings, 10 - 11.30. People were quite encouraging about it but most of the mothers asked why it was planned to be so short. It will now probably be between 2 and 5. The French concept of time is very different to mine!
To contine with the saga of the kitchen appliences…I’m going to the shop tomorow with the aid of a French man to demand my money back for the fridge. Who knows what will happen. Whatever happens it won’t happen easily, this much I have learnt.
