Words from the Home-Schooling outhouse ; whilst studying WW1 History & the battles :
“Arghh! This day is just like that Blackadder Goes Forth episode where Blackadder talks about the horrors of the war; ‘the mud, the noise of the guns and the endless poetry’…
But here it’s ‘the freezing-cold, the noise of my mother yelling and THE ENDLESS POETRY that people keep putting on social media and even on the radio!!”
(*Note to self. Let’s skip the Poetry section of English GCSE prep for a couple of weeks. We’re all feeling a bit jittery.)
