This morning we had the car booked in at the mechanics so I took the girls to feed the ducks and play at the playground while we waited. It appears someone's domestic duck has been busy with the local wild ducks, there are some very jazzy looking hybrids to be spotted in the river.
This is from yesterday when we took the dog for a walk. Ali held the lead on the way down the road and Lily held it on the way back.

School Holidays is pretty full on with no Playcentre or Mainly Music groups to keep us all busy. Ali's mate Karli is in Australia on holidays and the neighbours have scary coughs so Ali has been bored and whiny without her friends all week :-) Lily has been just plain wilfull but she's coming out with a new word every day much to our delight. Recent additions to the vocab include feet, book, mitz (mince), baby, car and moose.
