Yesterday, Sebastian set out to get some thyme from the herb pots in our courtgarden. He came back proudly clutching it and declared "here's some clock, mum". I do not make this stuff up.
Meanwhile, the adults have created the to-do-list from h-e- double toothpicks, as my father-in-law says. We leave on Sept 26 for a 3(Mike)-7 (rest of us) days in the UK. I keep reminding Mike that it is a wishful to do list and as long as the key items are done we will be fine. But as we are doing our first house-swap, we want the place to look good. On top of it all, I have 5 more days of work to do the week (or so) or Sept 17-24; I don't think Seb is going to be impressed but I plan on telling him that I have to earn the money for the plane ticket or we can't pay for the flight home...
The knight in training had a bit of a bad temper today. Hopefully, he will be merry again tomorrow. He doesn't seem to be suffering too much from the chickenpox but we still have a couple of days where he can't mix with others. To cheer him along, Michel and Marite (our neighbours) presented him with a wooden bowling set. He hasn't broken any windows yet...
