Bad hair day?

Possibly. 
But good baby day: a largely calm and good-humoured morning with Simone.  This is a faffed-about-with selfie, with Simone out of sight in the baby sling (asleep). My best technique for keeping her happy so far, when she's tired: playing some of Elizabeth Mitchell's lovely albums. EM does a mix of children's songs and other numbers, some by Woody Guthrie, adapted to include children.  Good for grandparents who are weary of 'The Wheels on the Bus' :-) 
Here's a personal favourite - reggae for little ones. There will probably be an annoying advert first:

 Jack got a lot done on one of his assignments, a book of text and images created collaboratively with a group of young Afghan men who are waiting for decisions on their asylum applications. It's a very moving piece of work, and with luck Jack and the group will be able to get it exhibited locally at some point.
