Anything that I know they enjoyed, if I see something negative in the news about it, I’d let them know in a completely dispassionate way. Just a news alert. And I’d do that ad nauseam. They like a particular film franchise? Oh dear, the box office takings don’t make good reading. They like a particular tv show. Oh dear, not being renewing for another series. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstly as a University prof I do close to sweet fa most of the time. Our school year is 3 terms of ten weeks. I am currently on family leave as we had a son last June (I took my leave this term) so I won’t go back to teaching until the end of March. I teach for a 10 week term until the massive summer break. Then for the autumn term I have a 10 week “junior sabbatical.” So in 2023, I will work a total of 10 weeks for a full salary. Hate me I don’t care! 7 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted January 9, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 9, 2023 I have two mouth ulcers which are properly pissing me off. Can barely eat or drink anything without it hurting so it’s helping with the new year detox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
