The Tooth Fairy pays handsomely for front teeth, so Henny pulled one out just for the money.*
Hurrah for 17th of May, Norway's national day, all you can eat free hot dogs, ice cream and waffles for everyone.* One of those days of the year along with the first day of school where I feel obliged to tell the kids to come over here and have your picture taken, just because I'm their dad and I have that power. They are always very willing.*
Taken bright and early before they get chance to spill stuff on their clothes.
Some of those
Brand being nosey:
Amazingly, they did actually manage to snaffle everything put in front of them throughout the entire day, not a crumb wasted here.
17th of May in full technicolour, you want marching bands and people holding flags? Want no more...

Been pretty hot weather wise recently, gave me a chance to start painting the terrace woodwork. (yes we have a terrace, I checked wikipedia)
A real PITA of a job, made slightly easier than I remember from my childhood watching my dad on the top of a ladder painting the wooden fascia boards by
- exterior paint now being water based (although I never imagined myself paying over 100 quid for a 10 litre tub of paint)
- it was sunny
- I had this view while I was working
- It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be*
Painting has recently been delayed due to inclement weather / illness / one member of the child support team being away.
Estimated completion of said project is set for summer 2017*
* None of these statements are actually true.
