Given that this round up should contain two whole months of achievements, you’d expect it to be chock full of things I can cross off my list. I hope we’re not sorely disappointed… *deep breath* 2.

When I saw the theme for this week’s gallery I knew exactly which photo I would use. That is me, aged 9 months, with my Grandpa. I don’t remember that christmas (hello, I was 9 months old…) but it looks like fun, doesn’t it? I was the first grandchild, so I expect I was spoilt [...]

I’ve never been any good at geography. I can’t even fold a map properly. I blame my the teacher I had at school. We didn’t get on, and I learned nothing other than how to write a 100 word essay on “Why I Should Not Waste My Time And That Of Other People”. I should [...]
