A day of waiting and excitement.
We did things like take the rubbish to the tip and fill the car with petrol. We visited the post-office to post a couple of letters and to buy penny sweets. Ms R happened to have more than ten pence so sneakily spent that too.
We visited my parents to play with the kitten, eat lunch and say good-byes and then returned home for more packing.
As the Rs were tired we aimed for an early night but Ms R couldn’t sleep and is still up now. Every time she looks like she’s almost asleep she jerks awake exclaiming "Only one more sleep!" Hopefully Master R will sleep well, last night he kept waking up shouting things in a very angry voice. One time it was "Get me some crisps. NOW!" and another "I want you Mummy". Not sure what it was all about as he usually sleeps great.
