Fab evening tonight 🙂 – we found ourselves down near Saint Heliers beach around about teatime this evening, so what else could be done but a picnic tea on the beach? Then a roam along the shore – it was low tide, so we got to explore areas we can’t normally reach. Kids had lots of fun scrambling over rocks and finding “treasure” (shells, broken pieces of glass which have been weathered by the sea until smooth and so on).

K’s back is on the mend or, at least if it isn’t, it’s pretty well disguised by the hefty painkillers the doc gave him the other day 🙂 .

A’s been a little under-the-weather this week – quite feverish through the night and clearly fighting a cough/cold. We decided to try to help him win by keeping him off school today and having a quiet day. If he sleeps well tonight, he’ll go back to school tomorrow.

Oh, and did I mention he has a girlfriend in his class at school? V cute!
