Fairly early in Lockdown#1*  the bigwingpiglet started a sudden and dramatic growth spurt, to the extent that I sent him a Google Calendar appointment on the date in the future when I predicted that he would equal and begin to surpass my height. After swiftly exceeding his mother just before we moved house he didn't really start to slow down until last summer, but slow down he has and on the selected date he's still a couple of inches shorter. I'll see if he wants to aim for a second date, on the grounds that it might persuade him to eat better and sleep more if he thinks it'll help.

*(I think - I'd like to find out the date when I made the guess, but there doesn't seem to be a way of seeing the date a calendar entry was created)
