I spoke at my old school, Rhydfelen yesterday, and what was odd was that even though I was going to their new building, it felt as if I was stepping back in time to when I was a pupil, as many of the same teachers are still at the school. Jennifer Evans, my English teacher who taught me the wonders of the Bronte's and of The Wife of Bath is now the Deputy Head, and organised the whole event. I'm never really that nervous, but in front of teachers who probably gave me a telling off or two when I was a pupil all those years ago, I was a little hesitant;-) Anyway, it was a great afternoon, and a chance to catch up and to feel that there are at least some people who are proud of what I have achieved!
I won't say who won the BBC Radio Wales quiz that I took part in last night so that you will all surely tune in on Christmas Eve, and snuggle up with mulled wine to hear our intellectual answers! or not... still, it was fun, and a chance to show off my entertainment knowledge!
In the news today, of course, is the fact that Nick Clegg or 'Calamity Clegg' to most, was elected as leader of the Lib dems. I was on the edge of my seat all day. My aunty, a (shock horror) lib dem Councillor on Watford Council voted for Huhne as she did the previous time. I guess that he is a little upset today for losing, but he might have a chance of another contest sometime soon knowing how frequent the Lib dems get through their leaders....
