My favourite time of year because I don;t have to work till Monday next, and I get to hand out with the family and stuff the next few days. Plus maybe complete a few little projects around the house.

An escape from the usual drudge-cycle of work-eat-sleep.

I am not in the least amongst the rich and privileged.

An entire class of children was evacuated from a swimming pool after a prosthetic leg was mistaken for a paedophile.

Teachers from Kings Hill Primary School in Kent spotted the leg poking out from a cubicle whilst taking their class of year 4 children swimming at Larkfield Leisure Centre.

They believed it belonged to a “peeping Tom” and after alerting staff evacuated the 60 children from the pool post-haste.

Makes you wonder about the observational powers of the teachers, or an example of the disabled being largely invisible in our society. For instead of noticing this one-legged bloke swimming around the pool their kids will soon be swimming, noticed an artificial leg that they took for being real. Surely if they had of noticed the one-legged swimmer, they would have put one and one together?
