Lots of the other newmums have signed their babies up for swimming lessons. Alice and I are not quite as wealthy as they, so with our chins in the air, we wheeled Bernard and Stan down to the municipal pool, paid our £2.85s, and parked our prams in the family changing room [on the other side of the No Outdoor Shoes or Prams Past This Point notice].

Today is the occasion of the anniversary of Bernard’s birth, a whole four months ago. My, time flies when you’re in a whirl of new baby. As usual, I am feeling less than articulate, so please don’t expect too much from this post. I just wanted to make a record of how he is now.

Every year around this time, I get into a tizzy about christmas. It’s not because I look forward to it, oh no. It’s because I feel responsible for making sure no member of our extensive extended family is excluded. Between us we have four parents who must all be seen separately, at least two of whom feel that it’s their right to command our presence on 25th December every year without fail. One of these has never yet been let down.
