Mr Grumpy is getting a little upset at his nickname - although after yesterday evenings performance up town I am even more convinced that it is an apt name for him. Just walking down the street was a chore. Admittedly a couple of people did bump into him and he claimed that one woman stepped out in front of him without warning (personally I think he was enjoying that one). However this is normal for London. Then there was the sports shop- which was apparently too hot. In the end he went and stood outside.

I had agreed to stop callling him mr grumpy, but now I am reconsidering......

The boy is now off school for six weeks. Yesterday I was surprised when he was up at 10:30 - I am sure that will be midday by the end of the week. We are going to play some tennis at some point - possibly next week. We may go up town to have a look at a shop I found yesterday which the boy is quite keen to visit. Well thats all for now.
