Monday's round again, and back to work for some of us.

I'm back to an air conditioned office, which will be lovely. It's just a shame it's at work. Anything planned for this week?

When I was young, parents never went to school sports days.

Maybe its region or school specific, but I remember my parents being at my primary school sports day thirty years ago.

I think it's either 1) my memory, 2) my schools or 3) my parents! Although my sports days were mostly 40(!) years, so perhaps is a 70s vs 80s thing. Although now I think about it, I was quite a sickly child so there is a chance I was ill for many of them, or I used that as an excuse to avoid participation.

Same here! I vividly remember their shame.
