Poorly phone

The time comes when a phone starts to die, and it's happening to this one. Switching on is a trial and takes longer and longer. Generally not a problem, aside from when receiving calls as the touch screen is intermittent and I can't answer calls. A new phone is on the way as am early Christmas present. 

Eldest is under the weather, he went to school, but didn't stay for cross country and is clearly suffering a little,very tired with a bit of a temperature. 

Youngest is seeming to be more settled, which is quite a relief.
