other stuff
in amongst all the OU angst, life still goes on! In no particular order we have….
been to jungle jim,
got the garden as level as we are ever going to at this stage,
put down grass seed significantly thicker than the packets says you should (there wsa a small enthusiastic girl helping us….. she wants lots of nice soft grass….)
Been to watch Prince Caspian - not a bad film, shame they strayed so far from a perfectly good storyline just for the sake of a few dramatic battle scenes.
Tried very hard to keep a straight face when Aprilia announced that they are doing their agility badge at Brownies on Friday adn that she also wants to do her Healthy Heart Badge over summer as between that and a few other activities being done she will get her "wagggs Olympic Gold Medal" (it’s a scheme run by the international governing body of guides each olympic year wehre you do activities relating to the country hosting the games and fitness activities, you can get either bronze, silver or gold depending on how many activities you do) It’s not that I don’t have faith in her abilities or anything but….. she needs to be able to skip to pass her agility badge……. well, she sort of can, if you count hauling the rope over her head, usually gettin git wrapped round her in the process and stepping over it when it gets back to the front ….. am wondering if Brown Owl will let her skip with a hoop, she can sort of do taht!
picked strawberries off our plants. Not many but very tastey ones!
having checked the seed packet, I’ve planted runner bean seeds (cos you can do that up til early July aparently) round the beandome adn put pop bottle cloches over them in the hopes that it will keep them safe from slugs until they are big enough to cope.
and now it’s 9am adn it is high time I woke Aprilia up (cos I was supposed to be doing that half an hour ago!)
