Awake courtesy of a little un; and whilst they continued on with slumber, I could not. Before 6, too..... Blinking flip.

And a low key TV / toy / breakfast / dressed sortofa morning; with the car laid up til probably Monday at the earliest, we fixed the MTB puncture and disappeared out into a not bad morning. Down to Trinity Crescent, onto the cycle path to blip Cigs and then up the cyclepath some more to Morrisons.

We stocked up on milk and then back to the 'hood to cook lunch for guests. Roast pork, roast veg, gravy. And a not so seasonal meringues with strawberries and mango. Very fresh and uplifting.

An afternoon of Jenga, Elf the movie and hide and seek. Interspersed with washing up and refereeing spats.

Our guests left and  played with hot wheels stuff and a light supper of fajitas before putting them to bed.

Now, where's the sloe gin...?
