Did some letters with Caleb today; we’ve progressed to capital letters now before moving on to more complicated dipthongs (vowel sounds particularly). He also did some join the dots in a new book. He’s doing just fine. I went to the post office to post a letter but they were already closed, so I’ll post tomorrow. Then we all went for a swim, very nice because it’s been hot today and the water was lovely. Nick always tries to do quite a few lengths, I don’t think he’s counting though, and I did about three. It’s great exercise. Caleb has freedom, with armbands, to be anywhere in the pool, and Aaron is happy to float around in the shallow end, also with armbands of course.
Foodwise, the bullseyes are still in the freezer. Perhaps tomorrow they’ll come out and I’ll dig up a nice recipe for them. Thankfully Nick and Paul deheaded them for bait on Sunday. We regularly get the following: Potatoes, carrots, onions, tomatoes, cabbage, lettuce, cauliflower, frozen peas and corn. All the usual assortment of frozen veggies as well and many tinned ones. Also apples, yucky looking pears, bananas on a regular basis. When the ship comes in we have imported tomatoes, peaches, nectarines, plums, apricots, grapes (obviously according to season). Those are only in the shops for a couple of days before selling out or going off. There are very strict importation rules because of crop diseases and that sort of thing.
