boy in a barrel

We had a water fight at the allotment. We ran around naked (well Joe did) and caught crickets. The sun shone all day in a completely summery way - first time since some time at the end of May.

Made Pip watch Brave heart last night .. . she thought the English were mighty unpleasant and cheered as each one was decapitated etc..
Reminds me of when she was a little younger and i made a big play of her Great grandfather fighting in the second world war. I pointed out a lorry from Germany- the unusual plates etc and she became very worried that they were invading us.

I'll have to watch which jingoistic films etc that i expose her to.
