Dear Mom!

I have arrived in England! I arrived this morning, in my envelope, just after 9am.  I wasn't released from the envelope straight away; first I spent some time in something my host calls her 'pidge', which appears to be a wooden shelf where her post is put.  Donna then came and collected me at 10.50am on the way to 'briefing'.

Donna seems very nice.  She's explained to me all about her set up.  Apparently this is a boarding school and Donna lives and works here looking after the girls who board.  She has a flat in the boarding house but I've not been there yet because Donna is currently working so I am working with her.

At the briefing I sat in my envelope and listened quietly to all the announcements.  Donna said she would have got me out but that she thought the other staff might look at me funny!  I didn't mind too much because there was a lot to take in just from listening.  I now know about some of the girls here (but can't write about them here cos its confidential!) and that Donna's boss Sue is completely crazy about sport. 

Once briefing was over Donna brought me to the QE2 office.  QE2 is the boarding house where the 6th formers (the biggest girls) live and this morning its Donna and I's job to make sure they are all working quietly!  I will take some pictures of QE2 next time we are here so you can see it, but for now I am just sitting on the desk, watching Donna plan her 30th Birthday Party.  Apparently we're only here until 1pm and then we're going to take Donna's dog on a walk!  I'll come and tell you all about our walk later...

Love you mom x
