Wise Children

Last night Erin and I were talking about the new baby when Sophie chimed in with this bit of wisdom:

"You have to be gentle when you pet the baby."

The Puppini Sisters

This post is a bit overdue, but the beginning of this month we went to see the Puppini Sisters at the Pigalle club near Piccadilly Circus.  The show was fantastic.  Not only were the singers themselves amazing and funny, but the band was incredible - what a fun night out with a couple of Andy's work mates and thanks to them for knowing about the show!

Hey Dad, it's only 220!

Yesterday I tried to replace the dead lightbulb in our closet. The socket, however, was so loose as soon as I wiggled the bulb it caused a short and we lost power in most of our house. After a quick trip to the hardware store today I re-strung the fuse (something that hasn't been done since the '50s) and mounted a new fixture.




Thanks for all the time you spent teaching me about home electrics Dad; it really paid off today!
