Portsmouth

Captain's Log, Half Term. After picking up Stewart and Nicholas from their sleep over with friends (aka 48 hours of Guitar Hero (Left), we all goofed off to Portsmouth, because the smalls wanted to go and have a laugh at Stephanie, and exprience her student house (Right). Rumbustous and wonderful family meal out — Real joy just being together. The star turn was the Spinnaker Tower — the others got Catherine up on the glass floor thing in spite of the fact she’s not too crazy about heights. Even on a misty day it was well worth a look.

Flicks together afterwards — The Water Horse — Cute but slightly limp Free Willy for Plesiosaurs. Stewart and Nicholas were considerably underwhelmed and demanded a trip to Jumper later in the week. Steph’s illustration course seems to be going well, and my eye was caught by this utterly wonderful sketch she did for a children’s book cover. I wish I'd the time to write the book to go with it...
