What to blog about tonight? The recent spate of vandalism at the Library (which also involved my car)?... The saga of our leaky ceiling and boiler problems? The cost of putting together a 'shoebox' to send to African or Romanian children. The fun we (I) had building the roundhouse Tom had to do for his half-term homework..
Obviously, Tom did get involved in the Roundhouse construction. He just lost interest after 5 minutes - and each session took around 1 hour before drying time. So probably 5 hours of work went into it, and between getting frustrated with the inflexibility of the twigs we'd collected and the lack of input from my son, we cobbled something together with the aid of wallpaper paste and spray-on glue.
The observant among you may have noticed that Tom's badge on his school jumper is a 'Blue Peter' sports badge. He applied to get it over the summer, being able to demonstrate that he'd inspired a friend to take up a sport. Friend being Monty and the sport being Tae-Kwon Do. Paperwork filled in, photographic evidence and Tae-Kwon Do Instructor's signature acquired, it was a lovely thing for him to take his badge to school to show everyone.
I'm keeping it short tonight, as we had a late one yesterday - Tom and his school choir were involved in an event at the Royal Albert Hall in London... it was a long, tiring and successful day.
Night night, Kat.
