The 200 cm dash, the 10oo cm cycle road race...

Never mind the Olympics, the real race to the finishing line is which of the VSP's sunflowers blooms first. Since he planted the seeds in the greenhouse and then planted them in the bed he had prepared, these plants have been monitored carefully. They are now more than 2m high and any day now...

This was also a very special day as the VSP cycled about 10 metres on his own for the first time. He has been able to do this for a while, but didn't want us to take our hand away until today. Later, he showed off to his Mum and we so enjoyed her pleasure is seeing him cycle round their little cul de sac.

Helped a friend with computing issues in the afternoon and then some more harvesting followed by a telephone tutorial.
