Wishful Thinking.

DEAR SPOOK, I didn't need to go to Oban today as there was a minibus to take the whole team. Finn always loved the one to one in the car, but was happy to go on the bus which left me time to slap the white paint about the house. They played 3 games in a tournament and won overall by one point. Grieg scored the winning try. Everyone seemed pretty pleased with their day, and Finn was unaffected by his ill-health. There is a home game next week.
Frazer has fed us Sunday dinner for the last 2 weeks so it was my turn. I had some vegetables in a sauce in the fridge which had been waiting to turn into a lasagne for a few days, so Frazer had to put up with that. Drew was so taken aback he forgot to make us all say Grace. We started without Meg as she was late home from Maisie's. When she finally appeared she announced that she had had dinner out!!! So all we non-vegies chomped our way through the 'interesting' lasagne in her honour and she didn't have to.
The children are opitimistically ploughing through the Argos catalogue, marking the things they would like for Christmas. There is such an enslought in the media and the shops that I think we would have to travel a long distance to avoid it all.
First day back at work tomorrow and I start just as they come off the school bus. It is only until about 9pm so we will see how they fare. I am hoping to get an appointment at the school to re-look at Meg's subjects.
2nd race of the Winter League today and I didn't even think of going. My running career is at it's lowest point for years, so you will have your work cut out to encourage me into a pair of training shoes.
