Marking break

sister_luckI've managed to get through one of my five marking assignments for this month. (There were two others, but I guess they count for April.)
This one was another second look at someone else's marks, this time for a colleague at my school and for our GCSE equivalent. It's a standardized test that has been introduced this year and it was fairly easy. There are a couple of marks we're not agreeing on and I'm not really looking forward to discussing this with my colleague. There is one exam paper that gets an A from her and a C from me. Ooops. If we can't decide on a mark it'll have to go to a third person. Let's hope it doesn't come to that. Oh, and the marks have to be handed in on Tuesday...
As a reward, we're going to watch the Eurovision Song Contest and mock it according to tradition. The boyfriend has just made me a Gin and Tonic. Sadly, this year we'll be without Wogan as BBC Prime isn't showing the Grand Prix this year.
Tomorrow I hope to finish the next two piles of exams, so that I can go on a little adventure on Wednesday without a bad conscience.
I'm enjoying the rainy and stormy weather we're having this week, because after nearly forty days of blue skies and sun that's what I need. It's not the grey, dull rain without respite, but rather short spells of rain with great light in between. Makes everything look fresh, sparkling and green.

Last year was my first time with Wogan and now we're back with the boring German commentary.
The embarrassment is part of the fun! Don't tell me it's worse than last year's entry?
