A visit to the zoo

30 April, 2017 James ForemanParenting

It’s unclear why, but I couldn’t get to sleep until about 3 this morning, and I still had to get up early to prep the kids for our visit to the zoo. When we got[…]

A series of “bonding experiences”

29 April, 2017 James ForemanFamily

Today was the first time I’ve had to handle both children on my own. Last year I managed three days in Taiwan with La Serpiente and didn’t kill her, so I was fairly confident I’d[…]

Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 2

28 April, 2017 James ForemanFilm

We loved Guardians Of The Galaxy when it came out in 2014 so I was a bit worried that the sequel would be a disappointment. And indeed, some of the best jokes are given away[…]

Nothing Day

28 April, 201728 April, 2017 James ForemanNothing Much In Particular

Are you not entertained?

23 April, 201724 April, 2017 James ForemanParenting

This morning we went out for brunch at Super Loco again. At least I thought we were, but my wife had other plans, taking me further down the river to the Kith Cafe. Whereas Super[…]

Taken for a ride

22 April, 2017 James ForemanBicycles

This afternoon​, when I was feeling a bit better (or perhaps just rattling more, given how many pills I’d taken) we took the girls down to the East Coast Park so they could play on[…]

Sick day

21 April, 2017 James ForemanNothing Much In Particular
