The people of Andalus did not observe them, thinking that the vessels crossing and recrossing were similar to the trading vessels which for their benefit plied backwards and forwards
 It feels like a while since I've actually put finger to keyboard and made some words up . . . as oppose to just dumping a load of pictures and kind of going, "There you go, sort it out yourselves." Erm, so yeah . . . what's been happening? We went on holiday, we came back, we went to a wedding, we came back . . . we did some DIY, with one eye (or maybe more) ever on R******. For this child is trouble, we've come to realise. But then you think, "Was A****** like this or have we just forgotten?" Would A****** have eaten a slug, a fly, some coal, a bouncy ball, a bit of plastic . . . erm . . . pretty much anything that would fit into his mouth? Would he? Did I? I can't remember that happening with A****** but maybe it did and we forget.
    
So yeah . . . the picture up there is the latest creation of A******. We recently attended some kind of 'thing' at A******'s chosen school and were given this, erm, document . . . part of which asked if our child could do this and that . . . we looked through the list and realised, "Can he use a handkerchief?" Another question asked, "What number can [A******] count to?" and, not wishing to brag or anything, but . . . well, I've no idea what number he should be able to count to by the time he gets to school,
    
so we've been teaching him how to get to a hundred but not really knowing whether he was actually paying attention or not . . . but then, he seems to love counting things (almost obsessionally sometimes) so why not encourage him, eh? But what I'm getting at is that, well, assume nothing. Is it enough to be able to count to 10, to 50, to 100, to 1000? What's enough? Who knows?

This entry has turned into a bit of a mess. Those pictures above are actually from a walk we went on later today (i.e. this entry has the erroneous time of 00:49), when we went to, erm . . . somewhere around the Yealands (Leven's Hall and all that). Let's just move on . . . |
