A bit too much head, bartender

Posted on November 27, 2017 By admin

We had a raclette lunch at Karen and Colin’s on Sunday. Good food, good drinks, good company :)

True dat. We also got fat and tired.

You know you’re a parent

…when your sensibly warm scarf and hat magically appear on your child, minutes after you hear the phrase “It’s not cold, I’ll be fine” (inside the house), followed shortly after by “I’m cold” (outside the house).

Nights get longer, cyclists decide it’s not worth the risk along the Route Cantonale.

We built it, and they came. Or something like that. In the end, the evening was a good one, albeit tiring. People told us it was the best one yet, and the treasure hunt and the chimenea were big hits. I’m a bit miffed that my vin chaud turned into vin tiède. Need to find a way to keep it warm next year. Still, in the end, people had a good time. Slender-Bean said he has a mostly good time (high praise, I’ll take it!), and Katy and I were skunks with cigars in the park.

I am moo-cow.

Bean new bed!

It’s taken us two weekends to move it, and 8 hours to build it, but it’s finally all done! 


What’s more, the child likes it!

The boy is back

Posted on August 18, 2017 By admin

Child is back from scout camp. We think that he had a good time (except for the part where his quadhelix came loose) but we can’t be certain. He seemed happy when he came off the boat and while they were doing the shout outs. Then came tears when he realised that he misplaced one of his badges. Then came the angst about not knowing what he wanted for dinner. Then came the Litany Of Woes (he gets that from his mom) about how Everything Hurts, and how Everything Went Badly, and how Everyone Was Mean, and how he wants another week of holiday before going back to school because, otherwise, What’s The Point…. 

So yes, my little drama llama is back.

Quote of the day

"Scum," said Crash, his voice low with resigned menace, "you've bought a leopard, haven't you?"
--(Terry Pratchett, Soul Music)
