Technology has arrived to school photos, I don’t actually have a pack of 8×10s and wallet sized, just this emailed image.

We have been over to Dumfries today, so Katie could compete at the Scottish. It was a good day with a very high standard. Katie had a really nice skate, and we think she came in about 8th. We had a long drive back, so we didn’t wait around [...]
today I went to a class at the scrapbook shop, nothing unusual in
that, except today the class was for the kids and Mum’s just had to
be the helpers.
Originally I was only going to take Katie, but Gill said Molly was

I’d love to share a video of her skate with you, but while Phil followed her round the rink with the camera, unfortunately he forgot to press record…

My father in law was 80 on Friday, and since 80 is an extra special birthday we had a party. Phil’s sisters flew in from abroad, and it was lovely to see everyone. We don’t get to see them often enough.
Katie, Molly and Jolanda enjoyed spending the weekend together. [...]
Katie’s school are studying Jamaica and last Friday they had a Jamaica Day. Katie and I were struggling to come up with a suitable costume, but in the end I think we did ok!
Mum’s were invited to visit school, so I stopped in for a very brief visit and got to [...]
