Sunshine, tears and goals

What a beautiful day it was, but with a lot of running about to do in it. We had a sad airport run at lunch time, life will be much less fun for a while. And then as soon as the boys had finished afternoon school we were off for a delayed football match. We won 4 - 16 and it was just the game for Ben to have one of those moments when he could afford to mishandle the ball and score an own goal. He quite enjoyed having a laugh about it later and his team mates were great about it during the match by cheering him on and getting him to pick his jaw up off the floor.

It has all meant a really late night for them. I am a bit frazzled with it all, also bearing in mind that Mrs Pepperpot is having some surgery tomorrow and I can't be there with her.

At least I can listen to some decent music now though. I have a new toy....
