Off and on today I've been
helping Hannah making building a den, on the settee, for Hannah. We haven't made one of these for years; not since Nat's age was still measured in single digits. Eventually we ended up with a pretty decent den. We thought that Nat was staying over night at Jacob's today so Deb hadn't planned to cook for him and had got the three of us a family chicken tikka plus nans and mini bargies and samozas. It turned out the over- nighter is tomorrow so Nat had a pizza. The curry was delicious and we all enjoyed it. I assume that Nat also enjoyed his meal but given that the was ensconced in his room on his x-box while he ate it we'll never know, will we? No change there, he'd been on the bloody thing since he got up that morning. Deb said to let it ride as today was the first day of the holidays. I did but made it clear he wouldn't be doing this everyday!
Shantelle popped in this evening and spent some time with Hannah in her den while we all tried to stop Monty joining them.
After BB11 finished Deb departed for Bedford-shire while the kids stayed down with me. Hannah kept getting hysterical every time I pretended to be Brain Damaged Horse (or Mental Horse) from Family Guy and in the end wouldn't stop pestering me to be him "just one more time". Nat managed to remained with us for the last part of V for Vendetta and two episodes of Family Guy but then gave up the ghost. Hannah stayed awake for three episodes of Smallville before she crawled into her den and went to sleep.
Then I came and typed this.
