Boys & Wood

A whole bundle of boys came over to help move all the wood from the front of our house up onto the roof (using a hosepipe as a pulley). They loved it. I locked myself in my room and let J deal with all the noise and chaos!

I took the children shoe shopping today and my K failed me - I asked the man if we could taste the shoes rather than try them on! The children won't let me forget it...

We visited friends from Mos and they'd managed to get back in to check on their house and it was so good to hear it was still standing! She showed me photos of her sister's house though which had been bombed by the allies because IS were hiding nearby. Thankfully the family left 7 days before it was reduced to rubble.
