Theatre recommendation! I've just watched Prima Facie (currently at the West End and completely sold out - sorry London Lawyers) about a female criminal defense lawyer and it's the best piece of theatre I've seen in my life. Anyone who loves Broadway - keep an eye out for it when it crosses the Atlantic! It's likely to win every theatre award here.

What's a rule you are expected to enforce that you strongly disagree with or are indifferent to. Do you enforce it or take the risk? I move around as a tutor and am currently working with a school that has a ridiculously strict formal address policy. One of my second graders refers to me as "Miss Tutoring (my first name)" - it's about the cutest thing ever and doesn't bother me one bit. We are moderated sometimes and I'm more worried about her getting in trouble than me for not abiding.
