It was so wet this morning that I felt sorry for the children and gave them a lift. It soon cleared up and felt like early spring in Scotland. Very disorientating.
Meg came home in great form, which got better when she found a parcel form Amy and Grieg and family. It nearly finished her having to wait for Finn to come home from rugby training.
They poured over the Oban Times, and loved the gifts, and letters. Very, very happy.
Finn brought his Toe by Toe book home to work on and really enjoys his extra lessons for literacy. Meg finally started today, but complained that she was missing Technical, as she really likes that class. However, she enjoyed her class too, so credit to the teacher!
Finn told us how his Health teacher lost the sight in his eye. He saved a girl from a man in an alleyway with a knife at her throat and ended up with the knife cutting his eye. The girl got the police and the man went to prison. Mr Hose is Scottish, but we can't quite get from Finn if he comes from Raasay or Rothesay yet. I don't think the incident happened in iether of those places though.
We banned Finn from any wrestling with his father tonight, just to give Spook a wee break. He is obviously not doing enough at training as we thought he would be more tired.
Meg is talking about going horse riding with friends on Saturday and having Hannah Smith to stay on Friday night. The first she has planned anything for ages. If they dare to tell me they are home-sick tonight...........
