The Competition

Miranda was giddy with excitement when she came home from school today with her Head Teachers Award. She really has been trying very hard over the last term, which we should remember is only her first term at Primary School. Even this morning she insisted on writing down her words, which really she's only just supposed to read out loud...

We had fun at bedtime reading a few books together, I don't know why but it's always more enjoyable doing it one to one, rather than with two or three.

A great set of tunes from Lewis tonight, makes all the difference.

Been reminiscing with my old school pal Andrew Scourfield tonight about old times, so seems particularly sad to learn of the passing of Gerry Rafferty who defined a portion of my musical history in the seventies.
