Hammersmith sky after rains.
I went to London for a few days and had a wonderful time. On Friday morning the sky opened up and rain bucketed down, causing lots of flooding and bad hair days. Later in the evening we went to a movie and chanced upon this dramatic skyline over Hammersmith bridge. If you look closely you can see a band of scum floating along the river's edge from all the sudden rain.
Is there anything sillier than a pair of 6-year-old boys after a handful of smarties??
Talk about a sugar rush!
Ah, that's better. A glass of wine and some champagne truffle chocolates courtesy of Ms Fabelhaft, and my headache has miraculously disappeared. I've got 36 chapters of a book to edit before the end of the month, and I've got school holidays in between, so I'm racing to get as much finished as I can before I go to London on Thursday. Consequently I spent the (gloriously sunny) day in front of the computer while Bruno and the kiddies had fun at the library, brocki, and lake (in that order). And there's more computer fun for me tomorrow - oh, the joy!
When I get back from London we are home for a couple of days before heading off on holidays for 10 days or so. Not sure what we are up to - off to the Valais for Bruno's annual pilgrimage to the Anzere bergrennen (mountain racing), then maybe to France or more likely Germany for as-yet-unplanned adventures, although this place is high on Max's list of priorities- although I'm not sure if I am ready to enter the age of amusement parks just yet...
London - I'm going on Thursday and I haven't made any plans, aside from visiting chemists and supermarkets :) well, it'll be great seeing friends again, I don't really care what I do there, just the change of scenery and language will be thrilling enough.
I can't stop listening to this and this. I'm obsessive like that. Funnily enough the kids never complain when I subject them to the same album over and over again. I've had my fair share of the Wiggles and Playschool over the years, now it's time for payback - heh!
