It's the first week of the school holidays here at Lester Towers. I have designated Tuesdays as Mandatory Family Fun Days and tried to schedule an outing each week. We have a carer staying overnight on a Monday evening, so Mr AL can go to the pub and play D&D without having to worry about Littlest choking at the same time as I'm having a seizure. She gets Littlest up and ready to go out on Tuesdays and is sufficiently intimidating that I don't need to raise my voice to get us all in the car.
So...we went to the zoo yesterday and it was extremely pleasant. I'm not a zoo fan really, animals should be in the wild not banged up in cages; but unfortunately our intrinsic human tendency to trash the environment means they provide important conservation work. Littlest liked the lions and the giraffes.
Next week we are going the theatre to see a live puppet production of Sarah & Duck, ostensibly for Littlest, but also for me. Quack.
That's the lot for this week. I'm organising promo for The Fog of War and trying to get words down for its sequel.
Happy reading!
Ally
