Birthday Boy

I am now a parent of 2 teenagers. Not quite sure how that happened - MrRoly's children from his first marriage perhaps?

Presents in bed as per tradition except that he only opened his sister's gifts as he wants to wait for MrRoly to get back from Dubai to open the rest. Smallest threw a wobbly because, well I don't really know why, and took his present away in a huff!

Coffee with Clare, Fat Club (sts) and home (via Adult Ed) to sort out the Brownie accounts. Alison rang at 11.45 to say she's got the van to transfer the school chicken run back to school! Action stations but long story short, the chicks are on days at school.

Returned shoes to Asda and collected an order from Sainsburys. Collected Princesx and popped to D's only to get a phone call to say Smallest's club was cancelled.

Home and chicken husbandry - the 3 chickens are now in their Summer (big) run and the chicks overnighting in the small run. This needed a big clean out after removing the chickens. Unfortunately 'Snowy' has been badly pecked by Sylvie. We cleaned her up and sprayed get with both anti peck and the purple stuff but lots more blood tonight on checking her :-(

Dominos for the birthday boy to get him back out for swimming with Scouts. Collected them, did some errands and ended up at Truro station to see the 20.47 from Paddington arrive with MrRoly on board! Much happiness as they didn't think he was getting home until tomorrow.

Home for the final time today - birthday pavlova and pressie opening (with a G&T for MrRoly and I) that coincidentally was around the time The Birthday Boy was actually born!
