Quite a contrast!

When I came downstairs this morning, I found this.

K in her nearly complete Tudor outfit, on Pottermore on the computer!
She was on the first book, working out which bottles contained poison, nettle wine and the potions to take your onwards and back.  It's a poem in Harry Potter & the Philosopher's Stone, with which you need to use pure logic to solve, although in the book it's not possible, as I think you need a visual clue which isn't there.  She told me that she had worked it out correctly, although she did remember which were the two potions that Harry and Hermione need to drink anyway.

We also continued our preparations for the Tudor day, making our money pouches and cupstrings.  I also finished off our coifs (girls hats), by adding tape through the bottom part where there's no brim to tie on to keep them more secure.  Other than that, the girls did two hours of gymnastics, including rope climbing and I was surprised and impressed to see M managing to get half way up (in a hall where they do trampolining - so *very* high ceilings), I don't think they were supposed to try to get any higher anyway.  We also had more Charlie Bone and M did a bit of piano practice.
