It's with great sadness that I have to let you know that our lovely Tezz has lost her battle with the evil 'Nellie'. Tezz's son, Damian, let me know this evening.

Hi, not hospital this time but on Wednesday I have a meeting with the school business manager and the LAs HR. Last time I met this HR officer was very upsetting.
