Blue mouth boy

This morning Alex & I headed out to get some provisions for the proposed BBQ with our neighbor, Charlotte & her visiting girlfriend, Sophie.
I picked little F up & promised that he could choose an ice cream from the van at the reservoir.
He chose a radioactive blue ice lolly- which subsequently turned his lips & tongue blue.
Alex's parents called unexpectedly & joined us for the BBQ. Just as they left, & we were settling down for some early evening socializing & drinking, the heavens opened & so we accepted the invite to continue in Charlotte's house.
Charlotte was so sweet entertaining Ferguson, & completely against my normal judgement I allowed him to stay up til late. It was a nice evening & once the boy fell asleep on my lap, & Sophie was yawning, we bid our farewells.
Alex could have carried on but I think once he's on the rum, he could drink forever..
