Our Week Ahead ~ 9 May 2016

What we type up as our week ahead is, always, only a guide line since the out workings in our daily life ends up dictating the things we can, or cannot, achieve during any given day.
Jay will be spending some time this week, and next,  at courses away from home so that changes how much work we choose to prescribe for him to complete.
Here's our intend line up for History and English this week ... hopefully
