Interesting class tonight. Got there at 5pm to wait for Tracy, found a heap of other people out the front, also waiting. There was a karate demonstration at the local shopping centre today and the four kids waiting were apparently told to wait for the kids class. They'd been waiting since twenty to (you get there 20 mins early) five, even though kids classes don't run during school holidays. Whoever was there should have educated themselves and known that, but obviously they didn't have a clue and probably had no business signing people up.
We lost two potential students because they had been waiting too long, but the other two stayed and when Tracy arrived, she didn't even recognise the name of the Sensei who signed them up. Neither did I - he's certainly not from Bendigo.
The two kids who stayed had fun - one of them wanted to do the kids class - she'd just turned nine, and spent her birthday money on signing herself up so I really hope she enjoyed herself and comes back next week.

Then I got home and discovered that mum wasn't home because she is at the hospital with nana, who had a heart attack today. No word on her condition right now, hopefully it was a mild attack and not a severe one. I've just lost gran, I have one grandparent left and I can't lose them all in just a few weeks, can I?
