Lots more C things.

Conception - again.  Over lunch we talked more about sperm donation and alternatives to the natural way of making babies, including IVF and surrogacy, and also reasons why they might be needed, for example in the case of same-sex couples or fertiliy issues.

Concert.  Yesterday I had a call from M's French horn teacher, partly to find out when she was likely to be able to play again after her broken wrist and partly to tell me about a concert that he had mentioned briefly a while back.  Consequently, having decided that she would like to go with Daddy, A & M headed off to Southwell at about 4.15pm to a horn concert that he was involved in (he conducted and played).

Crochet.  I've been doing more and M has found that she can manage to do so again now, which is definitely a good thing.  She has added trebles to her repetoire of stitches.

Computer.  K has been on the computer today, mostly while M & A were out.  She has been having a go at some of the games on mathsisfun.com, including playing chess against herself, Mad Virus and 'Classic Breakout', which is very similar to the earliest computer game that I remember playing.

Corrections and comparisons.  I've been reading more of 'blog' and have been rather horrified at some of my typos, including using the wrong there/they're/their at times!  I have been correcting the worst of the mistakes as I go along.  I've now read up to a year ago and as I said to A when he asked if I'd talked to my Mum about how the girls are getting on (he likes to have an idea of how they compare to schooled peers and my Mum was a primary school teacher, although she taught infants for the most part particularly in the latter part of her career), looking back at all the things we've covered over the last nearly three years is extremely reassuring.
