Swimming!

Elizabeth's been very nervous of getting her face yet when in the pool
lately. I thought a mask would help, but she refused even to try one
until Thursday. Today her confidence dramatically improved and she
swam a metre and a half with mask and snorkel. Then she announced she
would swim two lengths (probably because cousin Daisy did that on
Thursday). It seemed outrageously ambitious, but she did it!

We had time to kill at the airport yesterday.

Last day in Primary 1!

Doesn't time fly when you're old?

Elizabeth brought her books home yesterday (Don't they call them jotters any more?) She's written a lot, especially about our recent trip to Arran.

Easter bonnet

Today saw the Easter parade at school, then home early.

Elizabeth is ill

It's my turn to look after her. I might get more work done here without all the distractions of the office.

Old Dad blog

My Old Dad blog is getting better. The main blog, olddad.mclaughlin.org.uk, is pretty much working (except internal links to the home page). There's a sort of mirror at olddad.Posterous.com. And if everything works as planned, this post will be notified to Twitter, and from there to Facebook.

Straight from the bike shop to Rouken Glen.
