Not a lot

So... what happened this past week?

Not too much, actually. We took my Grandma out for lunch at a local nursery (the flower kind, not the child kind!) on Saturday. Err, we went shopping, had sunday lunch at my Mums... not a lot else really!

It's my last week at work this week then I've got 2 weeks off. Can't wait!

Joe is teething quite badly and has an infected finger from something so we've bought him all sorts of stuff from the chemist, who was really helpful. More so than the doctor who takes one look at you and prescribes anti-biotics (broken arm? Penicillin! Gun shot wound? Guess what you need!). Hopeless.

One exciting thing happened to Ele though. She was walking home from the shops with Saffron, Jess, Anise & Joe and suddenly a car came screeching into our road at mega-high speed and pulled into the new flats into a covered parking bay and hid there. Moments later a police car whizzed up the main road to the roundabout. Obviously it had been after this guy. Ele hid behind a fence and called 999 to tell them where the car was and to get the police car to turn around. But they insisted on taking her name, address, age, shoe-size, eye-colour, star-sign etc etc which took ages. Ele was getting agitated saying "just get the police car back, you can take these in a minute!" but no, they wanted all those details first. The car drove off after a couple of minutes and so the police didn't get their man. How stupid is that?

So remember, when you're being attacked or burgled, be prepared to answer 20 questions first!
