So tonight 40 years after I sat the Inter cert I was finally able to help my youngest with his maths homework

I remembered Pythagoras's theorem and its the best feeling I've had in ages.

Sometimes it's the little things

There’s loads of great coffee table books called Things I used to know - goes through all the stuff you’d have learned in school but have probably forgotten since then

The stress of long division in school is terrible, so tricky for them to master. Try to etch into their little heads that they'll use it every day if their adult life

"What they didn’t teach you is that Pythagoras had his own cult."

One of Pythagoras's students discovered the irrational number and Pythagoras immediately lost his shit and murdered him for it.
