Hi Terry All men are hot men this week, it’s 37C today creeping up to 41C on Saturday cooling to 34C on Tuesday. Hot and sweaty… No speedos but a gentleman was wearing a pair of the old fashioned (very short) rugby shorts. He had the legs to go with it How is everything at your end of the world? 7

I'll have nightmares Oh, Clo! You are missing out on the joys of being a teacher. Your kids will love seeing skeletons. Think of the skeletons as mini dinosaurs. When I taught 10 and 11 year olds in the US, I went to a local university and checked out an assortment of animal skeletons to display in the classroom when I introduced them to biology. We did a lot of fun things like dissecting chicken wings and comparing them to the skeleton, comparing the snake skeletons with live snakes, and comparing the cat skeleton to my pet cat. All my kids loved science, and I loved to see them have fun doing it. 5 2

The skies are clear, and the temperatures are cool at night and warm during the day. It's dry season/winter here. The only problem is that the clothing doesn't change much during the year. Guys wear shorts or long pants and a shirt no matter the season. Aod and I are doing well. January is a busy month for me, with all the legal things I need to do, such as renewing a car license and yearly visa, paying annual bills, and quarterly doctor checkups. Aod has a new hobby. He is assembling Gundam model kits. They are quite complex, with several hundred pieces. Some are incredibly small. I am still trying to catch up on my reading. 1 5

The dissection itself was never an issue for me, but the smell of the embalming fluid always made me dizzy. Max's science class does "virtual" dissection, using computer programs. It's more humane, and not so icky for any kids who may be squeamish. 1 5

My brother had that phase too... he would go to japan every year putting a small suitcase for his clothes inside a much bigger one with rolls of freezer bags. When he came back his clothes were still in the small suitcase but the bigger one would be filled to the brim with boxes of Gundam models. His technic was to flatten the boxes and take apart all the little pieces in the plastic bags... then he'd spend month painting and assembling them. 2 3 1

We were told now dissections and such are limited to animals we usually eat such as - sorry Nicky - frog and fish for ethical reason. No more mouses. 2 1 3
