Dates

Not the first time I’ve blipped dates, I know. But Ramadan is near and there are more and more in the shops. They’re eaten when the fast is broken for instant energy. This is the variety I usually buy but they’re all sticky instead of being individual dates. I need to find out why.

A busy day teaching kids then a nice dinner with one of my students whom I’m helping with an exam. I think we’ll become good friends. He’s a bit of a square peg here, so foreign friends mean he can be more himself.
