They say time flies... and it does!!

With all the marking I have to do at the moment , this afternoon I decided to put on a musical in the background, called XANADU.

It came out in 1980, I didn't see it then. But looking at it just now it seems so old fashioned and dated and yet it reminds me of my youth and suddenly I did a little maths:

80 to 90 ... ten years
90 to 2000 ... ten years. So twenty years
2000 to 2010... ten year.... WHAT! That make it 30 years!!!!

1980 seems like yesterday. Does this mean that I am getting really, really old!!!!

Thirty years ago. I was 26 and as young as the kids in the movie, they must all be in their fifties too!! Do I have another thirty years? Probably not! So I should make the most of every minute now and not spend hours and hours and hours correcting students' copies for PEANUTS!!

Madness, madness, madness!
