Have felt desperately tired today but it's no wonder as have done quite a lot recently. On Friday P & I went to the Christian Resources Exhibition at Sandown race course. We managed to get free tickets from Premier Radio. We had easy journeys both ways & it was a really good day. There was loads of interesting stuff there especially lots & lots of books. We got several book & CD bargains, will have to work out which of the books are for the church library & which we'll keep. There seem to be quite a lot of challenging Christian books around at the moment, questioning whether the traditional way we've 'done church' is the right one. I'll let you know when I've read them.
We briefly met up with a couple of other people from church there, they were looking at church chairs because the church is considering removing the pews & replacing them with chairs.
Louise had picked up J from school & they ended up taking him to a pub for a meal with them. He got home quite late but had to get up earlyish as it was the men's breakfast at church again so he was a bit tired all day really. In the afternoon we went out for a drive & ended up going to a museum in an old boathouse near a river. J loves museums but always wants to zoom round quite quickly while P likes to take longer, reading every single bit of writing. I struggle a bit as the thing with a wheelchair is you're at right angles to the exhibits so you either have to keep twisting your neck or keep being spun round. We also found a farm shop on the way & loaded up with supplies including some yummy chocolate crunch things (the weight loss program is going quite well, despite that).
Am reeling in shock a bit as got order form for J's school uniform. £200! Someone whose son is going to the grammar school says it costs £250 there so I suppose I should be thankful. We also got the timetable which J is excited about as they do loads of Maths, Science & Technology. He has to learn German as well as French which he's not very happy about, don't know why really, he might like German once he tries it. He also said he's a bit nervous about bullying which is understandable. We also found out he has to go & do some tests in June to decide which sets he goes in!
