Half a half term week; it felt good to lie in and not have to watch proceedings from Chennai - er I mean not have to log on and do some work. 

Although Alex did go out to see his new childminder in the absence of ASC; which prompted a cursing of the ex before we headed home for lunch with a sledge under our arm, so to speak. OK, so there was a quick burl aboot the park on the way home; why not?

PM was a more considered sledgefest (I abandonded the boys and dashed to Aldi for Tom's fave cereal before coming back to chum them home later); in to dry out and do a stir fry whilst across town there was a threat of coming down before a wobble took over and radio silence ensued thereafter.
