Sunday, as ever, was a day of beach walks and packing up to come back to London. This weekend ended slightly earlier as LG had yet another birthday party to attend. On Monday night we had dinner with old friends/employers in Wimbledon and didn’t get home until 1am, which meant that I have been struggling to keep up ever since. Then Tuesday brought bad news about the build: the planners had some major issues. As it turned out they were swiftly solved by our super-efficient builder. Thursday brought an unexpected article featuring this blog with a host of other excellent blogs, which made my day, and a decision to walk away from a volunteer position which has actually eased my mind. The best day by far was Friday, when the concrete was laid and The Girls and I saw a real-life Bob-the-Builder-style cement mixer up close. We then studied what a mixer does by using my magimix to make Valentine’s Day treats for school. See? There’s always an opportunity for learning in our house. And cooking. And both together! Saturday saw Katsu Curry and kids parties, building dens in the sitting room and lots of kisses.
