It’s the hashtag that keeps on giving. Since launching it on to Twitter last month, #TESoverheard has given us laugh after laugh.

We brought you what we then thought were the best of the best a couple of weeks ago, but now we’ve got another batch.

And we want more: Tweet us your entries to @tes with the hashtag #TESoverheard or email ed.dorrell@tesglobal.com and the best entry of the week will get a flashing TES pen and a TES mug.
