home again

Back home and into the swing of school, work and various activities. We had a great week in Suffolk. We saw Mum and Dad every day. The house we stayed in was literally in the middle of a wood. Pheasants abounded and wandered in groups of six or more on the grass. We saw a hare twice, not such a common sight now. Sam collected shells and disgusting smelling bits of crab shell and leg to sketch for his art project (molluscs, crustaceans and fish) and also sketched the scallop sculpture on Aldeburgh beach. We even had good weather for a couple of walks. Nick was only with us for 3 days as he's got a job which is taking him to London 2 or 3 days a week.
The London job will continue for several months, which is great work wise, but is taking a while to adjust to for family life.
As I write the USA election results stand at Bush 254, Kerry 252. Ohio result will decide it.
