Perm any x from y

The last few weekends have almost seemed like we're test-driving children to see which combination we like best! Ok, so we've tried all five on a Saturday about three times now. A fortnight ago we took just one (Miniwomble) to the Lakes for the Forum Weekend. Last week, thought we'd swap the wombles to Sunday for a change. This weekend, we were down to two mini-BFs (Midi and Mini), Megawomble and an abbreviated Miniwomble (late arrival due to sleepover early departure because she had to shop for a top for school drama production). That was yesterday and it was just the mini-BFs today. Not sure which I prefer, will have to keep testing........

What I will say though, is they're all lovely in their own ways. Minor success on the food front this weekend. Managed to cook two meals that the mini-BFs simply hoovered off their plates! And Miniwomble and Mini-BF cooked the Xmas cake. That was while Megawomble and Midi-BF erected my temporary 'glass'house to look after my garden plants through the winter. I've a nasty feeling that last weekend would have seen more survivors as it's been a tad cold this last few days. Oh well. It was a good team effort by the boys anyhow - a variation on Ikea without instructions. They'll appreciate the training later in life!

[It won't look like this!]




Tis quiet now, Sunday evening. Everyone has gone away again. However, one special person will be coming home on Thursday.
