The preposterousness

As MFC is setting the timer so I don't forget I have hair dye on.

Strops: I think it might be a bit too dark but as long as it doesn't make me look like Morticia Adams it should be ok.

MFC: And how exactly is hair dye going to make you look tall and skinny?

Would you like to meet in town for sushi they asked and we said sure.

Still it was Sunday and nobody had planned on Kulu Kulu being closed. Plan B was implemented and we headed to Yo!.

We remembered too late that The Boy was with us but his grin at the site of the coloured plates passing in front of him on their conveyor belt journey reminded us of why we normally keep Yo! to the days when we have 50% off vouchers.

A little later our companions are in awe of the quantities such a small person can eat and they take a picture of mine and MFC's combined stack next to the still towering little boy's stack of plates for posterity. More so because he took real care in choosing each of the plates and when he couldn't see anything he liked he had no qualms in asking for things off the menu instead.

The quote of the day was "I've heard before that children eat you out of house and home and I always thought it was a stupid saying. Now I understand."

Scatty

The Boy has been a touch forgetful of late.

On Friday he had a school disco to go to. He rushed home to get changed out of his school uniform into his civvies and drop his school bag. He was fed and watered then rushed out again (forgetting to close the front door - as you do) to catch a train.

Maybe a minute later there's the sound of a key in the lock.

"forgot something?"

"Yeah, shoes."

 This is a picture I did not take of a man picking his nose while queuing for food at the Lovebox London Weekender . He was wearing a T-shirt with Ralph Wiggum picking his nose printed on it and sporting the same gormless look.
