Today was my last day off with H before school steals him away again tomorrow. I asked him where he'd like to go so we could have a nice day together. The cinema? Bowling? Soft play? Out on his new bike? Out for lunch? His answer was none of the above. It was to stay at home all day. No amount of persuasion to get out of the house worked. But if that's what the boy wants to do, who am I to argue?

I desperately needed to clean the house seeing as I've become rather slovenly since Christmas, so I asked him if he wanted to help, and he said yes! So my little helper and I cleaned the place from top to bottom.

Who said child labour had been abolished?...
