Saturday Snippets 24 November 2012

{listening} to Dire Straits and Eric Clapton. And Big playing Knockin’ on Heavens door.

{watching} Snow white and the Huntsman. Not a good family film night choice. But it wasn’t actually a choice – the media centre refused to play Blue Rays, and then the TinTin DVD kept sticking so the next on the pile, after an hour of arguing with the media centre was Snow white. The fact that there are eight dwarves was particularly upsetting.

{eating} Domino’s Pizza. Way to go to rescue the evening.

{enduring} Three hours of music school. Next time I’m taking a flask and my netbook. But Big had a fabulous time, so that makes it worthwhile.

{writing} technical blogposts.

{curating} a business twitter profile.

the end of the beginning?

Snapshots

Big is making awesome progress on her guitar this week, and had her first visit to music school. Small took part in the primary maths challenge – I think he did pretty well. Smallest read me a bob book the other night – very impressed. And Tigerboy – the picture says it all. Cruising at 8 months.

  1. Sounds like you saved the evening. Great to hear that Big is getting on so well with the guitar ans that she’s enjoying it so much.

  2. I really want to watch Snow White and the Huntsman, but 8 dwarves?? That puts me off 😉
