It’s been a great day for Caleb today, celebrating his 7th birthday. The day kicked off at about 6.20 when the boys were awake and ready to open presents. We went downstairs at about 6.45 for the traditional present-hunt, and then the frenzy of opening, ably assisted by Aaron. After (during) breakfast Nick built Lego while Caleb played with a Transformer. We bought the Transformer two years ago from the UK via Scilla, but thought it would have been too difficult for him at the time, so it’s been sitting on top of our cupboard since then! We headed off to Rosemary Plain for our tenzees, although by then it had started drizzling a bit, so we took cover under the bus shelter, just in time to avoid a heavier downpour. Since being in the graffiti-ridden shelter wasn’t very conducive to picnicking, we didn’t stay very long, but managed to fit in the scheduled family photo. Back home I put together a meccano-style car while the boys played, and then we pottered about until lunch. Caleb decided that we would have lunch at Sally’s instead of Donny’s, as it was hot and sunny in Jamestown again. During the afternoon Nick went off to Knollcombes to get some work done in the chapel – we’re hoping to have a combined service there next Sunday, sort of an official reopening after the big job of maintenance there. Still a lot of work to be done though, after the new roof has been finished and the interior painted. They need to paint the concrete floor, wash windows, etc etc.
