On your marks, get set.....

Go!!

Took a half day this morning to go to Lottie's sports day at school. It got rained off last year so it was the first one I had been to. Really enjoyed it, and it was quite well attended which is good.

This is Lottie's first race, the obstacle race. She finished 3rd in this - she got a bit tangled up in the netting they had to crawl under at the end and lost her hat! She got third in the skipping race too, but had her moment of glory in the three-legged race with her friend Paige. More importantly she really enjoyed it and didn't complain that she hadn't won the other races.

I managed to avoid the mummies race, I never could run 100m! Stuart did join in with the dad's race - his age caught up with him I think, all the other dads were probably half his age! And it was very hot.

Reluctantly went back to work this afternoon and was just about to pack up when the fire alarm went off and we had to stand in the car park for half an hour!!
