Boy on a Stick and Slither


I've mentioned before some of the webcomics that I read. A particular favourite of mine is the very quirky 'Boy on a Stick and Slither'.
Today's cartoon is a nice one for teachers...

On a personal note...

...thanks for all the kind messages, emails and guestbook entries that people have left recently. Both my wife Kim and I have really appreciated them at this very difficult time. Thanks also to all the people who have supported the site's nominated charity, Tommy's.

Site wise, things will hopefully be back to normal in the new year with the return of weekly updates to Primary Resources and a new release from Primary Extra.
