Phase 2 of our family

PINNED

Back in the summer we were contacted by our daughter's former care home to ask if we would consider fostering/adopting another child. This came about from a casual remark I had made about the office/study that I created for me and my daughter, that... See More »

Nigel Farage condemns anti-immigration protestors in Dover and Portsmouth who cover their faces

Apparently dressing up in black and donning a balaclava while yiu attack police officers is a little "un-British" 😬 Of course, conspiring to conceal the origins of a foreign political donation is a different matter altogether according to Nigel "I... See More »

Sleeping soundly

Ever since she came to live with us four years ago, I have checked my eldest daughter shortly after she goes to sleep. This is not mere self-indulgence. She tends to bunch up the duvet and pillows around her face and it worries me that she will... See More »

Onwards and upwards

Our daughter received her exam results by text on Thursday during our family camping holiday in Exmoor. She got 4s in English, Maths and Science (x 2) and a 1 in PE - comfortably enough to start her apprenticeship - and a merit for her vocational... See More »

School sports day

Yesterday afternoon we went to support our eldest daughter in her last ever sports day. While most of the girls were happily engaged in fun, not-at-all competitive challenges and races, our daughter of course chose to play in a rugby 7s tournament 😬... See More »

The Bayeux Tapestry has arrived in the UK, for the first time since it is believed to have been created here nearly 1,000 years ago. At 02:50 BST, chaperoned from a secret location in northern France by a police guard, it was driven into a loading... See More »

Happy Independence Day!

🇺🇸 🎉 🎇 And for those of you listening to Trump's "really long speech", please make sure that you are well hydrated, have emergency rations to last several days, and that children and pets are safely housed indoors 😊

Laws of physics remain undisturbed

Our teenager wants to celebrate the end of her exams (and her school career) with a sleepover at our home this weekend. Just a quiet affair with 17 of her closest friends 😳 My gently expressed reservation that her room and bed may not be up to the ch... See More »

Date night with my daughter

Our 15 year old finished her school exams on Thursday. At some stage I had rashly promised to take her out to dinner at a restaurant of her choice. Friday was a beautiful early summer evening and we sat at an outdoor table overlooking the sun rippled... See More »

Breaking news . . .

Apparently Elon Musk is being lined up to play a trans Helen of Troy in Christopher Nolan's new version of The Odyssey 😃 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c242d9472dqo

I received a panicked text from my daughter at school yesterday telling me that she had lost her PE kit. Normally I would be tempted to ignore this, as I must have done on the 132 previous occasions that she thought she had forgotten or mislaid her... See More »

Pre-exam wobbles

After trying all weekend to gently coax our teenager to sit down for a couple of quiet hours of maths revision, the inevitable meltdown came shortly after lunch today when I was left in no doubt that the world was about to end 😥 Drastic times call... See More »

Beware of Greeks . . .

I've just returned from my 10 year old's school assembly. Her class have been doing a project on Ancient Greece and some of the children were asked to research and dress up in typical clothes from the period. My daughter was assigned the part of a... See More »

My teenager is muttering darkly to herself in the Time Out corner

She has declared herself to be "very disappointed" that I won't unilaterally lift the grounding imposed on her by my wife yesterday. Not half as "disappointed" as I am to be stuck indoors with a grumpy teenager 😅 Back to school on Monday 😌

J D Vance shows Trump how to do regime change properly!

SW is currently showing me ads for gold bullion investment and dementia tests

I wonder what in my recent activity may have triggered that 🤔

Should auld acquaintance be forgot
