Morning after

Someone obviously had a good night down by the basketball gym.

A slower busy Wednesday than usual. A friend popped round this morning to get some advice on a trip to London this summer. Her daughter came to play with TallGirl - who is sick! She is never sick. But today she has it bad: sore throat, high temperature (though bizarrely our ear thermometer thingy said she was 35.9 C - which seems a little on the low side....

So, the afternoon rushing around routine was abbreviated to just taking CarbBoy to basketball. After a long discussion with him about football training, he finally admitted he didn't want to go because a neighbour (one of the mean boys at school) told him he was 'nul' (rubbish) at football. Despite our reminding him that he is chosen for every match, he can't get over that one comment. Tricky really: he's not brilliant at football - not in the way he seems to be at basketball - but he is ok and is really useful in his team for defence. Anyway, there's another tricky issue to get over.

In housebuilding news, Mr B installed a bit of floor in one of the broken rooms. Soon we will have two brand new rooms! (To be cleaned, patched, painted, furnished..... Will it ever end?

No.)

There are backblips if you fancy clicking back a couple of times.
