Two things that have been commented on from recent blogs:   I inadvertently wrote Kevin Spacey instead of Tom Hanks as starring  in the film, Captain Phillips (sorry Tom) and also people said `why are the Infants making puppets of Guy Fawkes in February? Surely they should do them in November? I asked Teacher but she did not seem to have a logical answer to this
B. Wiggins had a complete hair do the other day which included bath and blow dry, nails, teeth, ears, the lot. He emerged looking very surprised and half the size. He obviously is pleased that he can now see properly again.   He went off to the Isle of Wight for the weekend with daughter J and it brought home to me that however much trouble it is to go out for walks three times a day, I really appreciate his company and cheerful presence.
I saw a harrowing film the other evening in the Village Hall: A Royal Affair which was not a soupy tale about Princess Di or our sensible queen as you might expect, but a murky story about the Danish royal family in the eighteenth century,all based on fact. I enjoyed it but I had to shut my eyes and put my fingers in my ears for the execution scenes.
The new  bathroom is being installed as I write this with a lot of banging and disruption. I will be glad when it is done, as I have to go to Burgess Hill to have a swim daily as there is no bath or hot water at present, and I am not so keen on swimming as I used to be, the lengths seem much longer.
