Which museums do you have in mind, P?
Was going to be an exhibition at the British Museum ...... in the pub now instead.....situation normal

Earl Barfly, if you actually get there with L over the next couple of days, can you at least take some pics?!!

I'd prefer real children over grown ups living a second childhood any day. At least the children are innocents and haven't yet made enough mistakes to learn from them.... or not.

There is time to correct a child - not so much a fully fledged adult.

Definitely the favourite Aunty, spoil the lot of them rotten, I always have! The middle one is 15 now and seriously into clothes and shopping so its gonna be an expensive few days....... plus they just had a double points night in Boots, the car groaned its way home under the weight
At least they are more self-sufficient now, its not a constant thing as they can all amuse themselves these days; even the 10 year old doesn't wake me up early anymore!

And having unpacked the haul from Boots I now know how I managed to spend £130..........never leave a 15 year old girl unattended with a shopping trolley in the Beauty department
