Alexander has decided that he wants to be the coolest baby on the block. There’s nothing wrong with a boy having ambitions, and he has certainly started well. Here he is sporting his mother’s sunglasses, just to see if that "I’m so bright I’ve got to wear shades" look is the one for him. I …

Local Service for Local People
The number of chores left to do prior to departure is shrinking by the day. Today I got the nice people at Southern Motors to service the car and put it through it’s MOT test. Service with a smile and zero problems with the car. Not bad for a ten year old Italian car with …
Freedom
Well, SWMBO has finished work (for ever, if you ask her) and I face a demotion. No longer sole (and primary) carer to JFGP I now must move down the hierarchy to secondary nappy changer and chauffeur. The demotion does come with benefits though, I’m now only on the early shift every other day – …
Another Sporting Weekend
After three days at the Belgian Grand Prix last weekend I shall be continuing the sporting odyssey this weekend. Tomorrow we are off to the Zurich Premiership double header at Twickenham.

Moleskine 2005 Diary
I’ve mentioned their notebooks before, in fact they are probably still on my wish list, but Moleskine have just released their Diary for 2005. Even though I am a full time carer, and therefore skint, I ordered one as soon as I found out they were released. Don’t worry dear, I ordered one for you …
Blogging about Pages about Blogging
I could disappear somewhere very painful here, so bear with me folks. I’ve collected all of the JFGP related photographs that I’ve posted to this blog in the last year or so and put them on their own web page. This will make it easier for SWMBO to find pictures of her son when stranded …
