    I don’t miss Sian at all… I see her almost every day.

  • Andy Hoyland wrote a new blog post: Round 7: If I wasn’t me I’d like to be…

    This is officially the hardest round so far. I’ve probably said this before but I mean it this time. The problem I am having (there’s always a problem) is that I can’t stop thinking “I’m really happy being me” and I know that’s not what this round is about. I know it’s [...]

    Ha ha… I could spoil yours for everyone. It Sian wasn’t her she’d be Louise Redknapp…

    Indeed it is! Nice lists people… well done. Also – I made a list of the topics for Blogenge. Should I share it or should we keep it secret? People could add their ideas as we go and then I can cross out ones we’ve done…

    Ha! Nicely done Kate… gotta love Anna Begins and that would certainly have been in mine if I’d gone down the Crows route! Welcome to the Blogenge!

  • Andy Hoyland wrote a new blog post: Round 6: The soundtrack to my life

    I am pretty sure we’ve granted an extension to the Blogenge this week due to the Ofsted visit to Palterton and the fact that My Boss will have had her mind on other things for the past few days. But I thought I would take this opportunity [...]

    1 – Very Hungry Caterpillar
    2 – Where the Wild Things Are
    3 – The Whale & The Snail (it grows on you but I prefer it to The Gruffalo at the moment)
    4 – Not Now Bernard
    5 – Where the Wild Things Are (so good it’s on here twice and it’s not just because I couldn’t think [...]

  • Andy Hoyland commented on the blog post Round 5: 5 Books Everyone Should Read

    Should Best Man Speech be a new topic for the Blogenge?
    Thanks for the extension. I was all pleased with myself for actually being ahead of the game this time round (My Boss’ busy-ness resulted in my not so busy-ness!) but have made the mistake of reading the post back and think an extension would [...]

    Is it really a northern thing? I’ve called trousers pants for ages and I get told off… and I’m from Yorkshire.

    Also – Mike – I should point out that would only give you part ownership of this post as the blog is just jonny.hoyland.me.uk.
    So there.
    Also – where’s Ellie’s comment? I’m sure I saw it around here somewhere. Now – Mike and Ellie – you two REALLY should have blogs you know… how about [...]

  • Andy Hoyland wrote a new blog post: Act Justly

    Act JustlyI haven’t done one of these for a while but I thought with the arrival of my new laptop I would show you the wallpaper that I am using on it.
    So here it is. I got it from a website called justwallpaper. I haven’t [...]

  • Andy Hoyland wrote a new blog post: New Blogger

    Hello all. Just a quick post to say welcome along Sian! I’ve finally finished turning Sian’s design into a proper blog (well – almost finished – probably more tweaks as we go!) and she has started blogging. Go and have a look – you can probably guess the address but just in [...]

  • Andy Hoyland wrote a new blog post: Round 5: 5 Books Everyone Should Read

    Here we are again then.  Round 5 this time.  I struggled with the 5 films everyone should see and this one is going to be even harder. Especially because, as usual, I am last to submit my entry – and am, currently, 11 minutes overdue!
    First things first though – I’m writing this on my [...]

  • Andy wrote a new blog post: Round 4: Rubbish Changes to Brilliant Foods

    I have to admit when I first read this one I didn’t have a clue what to write.  When it comes to food I’m a bit like Joey.  Food, generally, is good.  Ok – I have favourite food, there is some food I don’t like (but not much) and there are some things that just [...]

  • Andy wrote a new blog post: Readers Training Day 1

    Some of you may know that I began Readers Training on Sunday. Now – before we make any jokes about learning to read or school standards slipping and all that – I should point out it’s part of the Sheffield School of Ministry and it means I’m training to be a Reader within the [...]

  • Andy wrote a new blog post: Blogenge Round 3 – My Life In Film

    Firstly – huge apologies for the lateness of this submission. I should also apologise in advance for the late submission of Round 4. And indeed the late announcement of Round 4 – although I think it should actually be My Boss who announces Round 4. Not sure though. Anyway – the [...]
