Down House (Charles Darwin's home) is an easy drive away with a choice of good walks in the area.

If you don't have much experience as a TEfl teacher, maybe you could try doing some voluntary work (assisting at a language school or something similar) - highlight that in your CV along with transferable skills from your previous jobs. Good luck!

Another recommendation for Oven Pride. But be warned it's pretty strong stuff. When I last used it, I put the oven racks into the bag provided and some of the cleaning solution leaked out, marking my wooden worktop. Having said that, if used properly and with caution it's very effective at shifting all that burnt on grime!

Am nearing the end of 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami and really wish I hadn't bothered. What a disappointment!

Try a specialist leather cleaning kit for the chairs. http://www.lakeland.co.uk/4505/Complete-Leather-Care-Kit?src=ggcle&gclid=CLnszYmm9a0CFaEntAodaB4zsg

Chicken goes very well with pesto. You could try adding pieces of cooked chicken to pesto pasta or try flattening out pieces of chicken breast as described by Sandy and cooking in the oven with pesto to taste spread on top. P.s. Home made pesto is very easy and extra yum!

Can anyone recommend amusing/different eCards to send this Christmas? My faves so far have been JibJab and Jacquie Lawson.

How about this pate for the vegetarian http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2959/mushroom-and-tarragon-pt with a meat or fish version for the non veggies?

Your toddler may be a bit young for this, but we always enjoy a bike ride on the Camel Trail when we stay near Padstow. It's a beautiful, traffic free stretch of disused railway stretching from Wadebridge to Bodmin. If you don't have your own bikes, there are several cycle hire places that have bikes with child trailers. http://www.padstowcyclehire.com/home.htm

37 Bus Route - good and bad comments please
Ruffler replied to James Barber's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Agree with all the above comments on frequency. I would use this service much more often if it were reliable. Timetables indicate buses around every 10 mins during the day, but it seems to be more like 20-25 mins. -

Second thoughts - no leper colonies in The Magus - it's a long time since I read it, but it's still a good holiday read.

Hazelnunhead - I think you might be thinking of The Magus by John Fowles - another great holiday read!

Another big thumbs down for The Slap - don't waste your precious reading time! I also loved The Kite Runner and Thousand Splendid Suns and enjoyed The Help and The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot. I've recently joined Audible.com and loved the audio version of We Need to Talk about Kevin. I'm now going to add One Day to my list of holiday reads!
