What a fidget.

Home again overnight Andrew, my son, was an absolute darling.  Happy, relaxed, ate all his food and was content to watch Barcelona v Real Madrid on the tv with his dad during the evening.  But today, his switch has been flicked and by whom [...]

He did have a lovely day out to Lichfield.

On the train to Lichfield, Thursday 25/11/2010 there sat my boy on his day out, or trip out for lunch.  And he was happy, well-behaved and ate all his food.  (No surprise there then.)  The home are so good to their clients and Avril and me [...]
