Today's tour is a rather belated walkabout of the landed estate at Jalan Seaview. It was requested by a reader some time ago and I've been putting it off not because I wanted to procrastinate but rather because the houses there are all on the larger side i.e. more expensive and, thus, of interest to fewer of our readers..
As a parent, it's distressing to receive a call from the school informing you that your child has been injured.

Braidwood said she cannot find enough staff to work at Learn and Grow in Fowlerville. I have a waitlist that’s a dozen deep, she said. I have parents going back to work and I don’t have availability because I don’t have enough staff.

When we were able to open up in June of last year I only had a fraction of my staff willing to return back to work, she said. .That’s my biggest issue. My staff was cut in half due to the pandemic.
