1) The kids come home from school for lunch today. Between them they pretty much demolished a freshly-baked loaf of parmesan and sun-dried tomato bread. Perhaps unsurprisingly they didn’t want much afternoon tea, and still weren’t too hungry by dinner time!

2) A text arrived inviting A round to a friend’s house to play while M is at Explorers. So we are very much appreciating a quiet early evening hour, before the kids and the babysitter arrive home and we have head out to our meeting.

3) Now that A has joined cycling club, we concluded that we needed to buy a bike carrier for the car. Then one of K’s colleagues sent round an email saying that he had two bike carriers to give away… 🙂
