The Weekend At Last.

At last it is Friday. It was really hard to open my eyes this morning and actually get out of bed. It's been warm again today though rather overcast. The weather of the last few weeks has been so much better than during the 'summer holidays'. We had the school nurse come and talk to the class about going to the opticians and when at the end of her talk she asked if anyone had any questions about the opticians lots of hand went up. However when the children were asked to give their questions most of them said 'I'm going to the fair tomorrow'. We did get some children who informed us that Granny or Mummy wears glasses. Well it was Friday afternoon and the fair is a big event in their lives.

I had a quiet walk around the garden this evening before entering the bombsite that is the kitchen. That's what happens when 2 lads cook their own suppers and 2nd suppers. Both of them met me at school for a lift home and we called in at Sommerfields to pick up a few bargains and treats. A whole corn fed chicken and some quarters were amongst our haul and they've already been roasted and will no doubt be demolished in a day or so. Linas was working again today and got roped into helping move some cattle including a large bull (placid) and a small bull (unruly) which leapt over and broke through fences. He's certainly learning some new skills.
