Somebody stop me...

"My wife drives like lightning."
"Is she fast?"
"No, keeps hitting trees."

I'm here all week....

I've had enough of this study into 80 year old twins that I'm doing. Same old, same old. It's better than that job in the textile factory though. That was sew-sew.

Umbrellas

Thanks to Aunty Caz for the beautiful umbrellas. It has still been 30 degrees over the last few weeks, but a storm at the weekend gives an excuse for a walk in the rain.

Post-birthday blues

Birthday party is over, and here are the results. There was a fight over who got to put the slot racing car box over their head. I stop asking.

Bunk beds

We finally had to get rid of the cot beds. The have stuck with us for 5 years, But I am finally running out of timber to screw together and the had to go. To replace them, new bunk beds plus a third bed. We couldn't get an agreement on who had which bed, so we go by a sort of rotation policy. The beds come with the phone number of casualty etched on the side.

Car repairs

"Torque wrench! Someone pass me the torque wrench!"

Doobie

The children have a project - to look after our friend Doobie for a week, writing a diary and taking pictures of his time with us. Two down and one to go as Zacharia takes over.
