Well now. Olympics in full swing - girlie quite liked the boxing . . .
The one-eyed sausages-on-legs that are the mascots are a little disturbing, though . . . I know what they're meant to be, but to me they just look like one-eyed sausages. Sorry. ;-)
Ahem. Anyway, small fry are doing their thing - eldest is studying for his Bsc, girlie is off to college in September, MB is supposed to be doing full days at school again when the holidays finish and youngest has had a massive physics discussion with his great-uncle today. His great-uncle's hip is actually healing really well - from the end of June to now and he is only using one crutch instead of the zimmer frame/wheelchair. Result, I think!
Our family photograph collection is expanding; we keep finding cousins, lol. Seriously, I've found some in Leicester and Aberdeen that are the Gib side of the family! Knew about Wakefield, Hull and the lot in Christchurch NZ but not the Leicester and Aberdeen people! I'm always saying (jokingly) that Gib people are all related and then life goes and proves it for me! ;-)
Hopefully going into London at the weekend (not to the Olympics but for a meeting and some food) so that should prove interesting :-D
