BBQ

Yesturday, we went for a BBQ on the beach in Shanklin. Technically, it was a Bri (a South African BBQ). We enjoyed the sun, surf, and really good food. Many of the party went into the ocean swimming, despite the cold water. Evelyn and Andrea went in. Andrea had some type of allergic reaction to the water and her eyes puffed up (like Rocky after a fight). I ended up taking her to (the) hospital in Newport. She has some eye drops and pills. The doctor thinks it may be a 'one off' reaction.

Half term is coming up at the end of the month and we are thinking of going to Italy, Rome specifically. There are just a few things that have to get sorted out before we can make any specific plans. I really can't wait as the students have become even worse of late. I don't know if it is the time of year, the weather, or the upcoming exams.
