Some moments this week:

- family card games going on until way past bedtime. One night, Kiloh ended the game asleep on my leg under the table. Apoa and Kiloh both seem to have inherited Ohna's card sharp gene, btw.

- had my mobile ring on the beach with a message confirming some work. Always wanted to have that happen to me.

- found some interesting data about the English of seven year olds. I was reading Kiloh's copy of Girl Talk where a letter from a reader raved about how much she enjoyed it by saying 'Girl Talk is the bomb'

- found a 'snake' in the garden but it turned out to be a slow worm. Yes, it was slow.

- went round the neighbours to say 'can we have our ball back?' Haven't done that for a few decades. I think the last time I did it old mannie Peerie came chasing after us with a stick.

- the downside. Of course, we've had messages and phone calls about various kinds of building works (supposedly) going on at home.

- oh, and we graduated from crazy golf to 'proper putting'. Highlight of this was watching Apoa carefully, and balletically, lining up every shot.
