Never refuse your children a bedtime story, even if you're shattered.
One night, it will be the last time you read one to them and you won't even realise it.

My first 5 years of primary school had classrooms set up with space for a “mat” where we’d sit and have a teacher read or pass a book round for each of us to read a section. It was also great for maths games etc. From Class 6 onwards it was straight rows of tables with no room for anything else.

The conditioner bottles tend to have one rounded end so that they can only be stood on their cap.

A lot of ranges have the shampoo cap on the top of the bottle while the conditioner bottle is designed to sit on its cap which is at the bottom. So you can tell them apart by which way up they stand.

This got me thinking, Spaced started 2 months after Phantom Menace came out and yet it wasn’t until the start of the second series, 18 months later, that they did: “Tim burns his Star Wars stuff”. Back then you could leave it 18 months and still make a “topical” pop culture reference.
