Saoirse's handprints!

The cattle managed to get into school over the weekend and there was cow poo in the yard. Also it was bitterly cold with a thick frost - the children were giddy with excitement and practically rolling in the stuff (frost not poo). Creative designs were made on the picnic tables! Smallest person was beside himself with excitement but had forgotten his mitts - the first half hour was spent trying to defrost him, amidst sobs.

Glorious weather really. Most leaves are now swept up, edges cleared and stragglers trimmed. All good - just don't mention government, banks, cuts or sovereignty :(
