Health and Safety? What's that??


Feb 5th: The warm sunny weather was back today. We managed a couple of hours' schooling then the boys had a swimming lesson before lunch. After lunch we started making a Japanese koi fish out of coloured card, paper and crepe paper. I'll try to take a picture when they're finished. We went to Victoria Park for the boys to play in the playground. Just as we were about to leave the boys disturbed a wasps' nest and Edward and Peter got several stings each. We ended up at the doctor's surgery and they saw their dad as he's the only doctor that works on Thursday. A dose of antihistamine for both and some steroids for Edward and they were much more comfortable.
The photo is of Jonathan on the tractor at the playground. This is a real tractor. Health and Safety doens't seem to have arrived here yet. I think they might have removed the engine but otherwise all the sharp edges and finger-trapping gaps are still there! I don't know if someone decided to put a tractor there or if it just broke down one day and was left where it was!
