That really took me a couple of minutes to work it out. Ah, the schools will reopen. Got it!

I assume online learning had nothing to do with hanging out washing?

Looks like the Department for Administrative Affairs has scored a hit. Yes, Minister.

Our illustrious leader can 'decree' it be done. He's succeeded with the China railway, implementing the 911 emergency number, and overhauling the RTP.

This will be a mere walk in the park for him.

Sons school boosted tuition prices and on-line learning was plain terrible. For the cost of his tuition and what he got was a terrible deal.

She has been told children will be given the Pfizer vaccine, now all the children at my wifes school are under 12.

The outcome should be interesting.
