I took the kids to school on Monday morning. En-route I stopped to pick up Amelia’s best friend, Katie.
As we drove along the girls started singing a playground song:
“Alison and Thomas sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g”
They laughed and I laughed along with them.
“We know another song, Daddy” said Amelia. I asked them to sing it.

Once again, my blog posting this week comes from the Yorkshire town of Leeds. Hopefully, this week will see this particular part of the project through to a conclusion. But I have an inkling there may be additional work later, so this may not be my last trip up here.

I’m currently in the midst of tidying out my study, in preparation for [...]
Further to my post a few days back:
A chap at work managed to rejuvinate my battery. I should probably still get a new one, but this one will do, in order for me to get the bike running and up to the MOT station.
I fitted it yesterday and started the bike. All well and good.
Checked [...]
