Sports day misery

[doodles]

I just run the Pimms tent (hic)... far the safest place to be.

That sounds very sophisticated. We had to make do with weak 'basic value brand' orange squash.

The children get a plastic cup of tap water from a 'Value Lemonade' bottle - parents are 'reminded that drinks and snacks are not permitted at the trackside.'

Oh no we have fruit and water but also tea and cakes and Pimms.

Ahhh how the other half live ! Our children have those hideous 'fruit' shoots..still on a positive note it means they then all run like the duracell bunny........

[Snowdrops]

What, you mean they all grow long pink ears and whiskers?

Ho ho .Where's Sherry anyway ? I think either nursing a twisted ankle after elbowing her way to the front in the mums race...and let's face it we know she was probably wearing her high heels or maybe taking a leaf out of Doodles book and preparing a nice big jug of pimms. Mmmmmm

Sherry persuaded them all to add a little competition to the event this year and they are all still out after dark completing their ultra-marathon Kent traverse.

They cancelled the sports day which was to be held this afternoon because of predicted weather. I am amazed that they take the weather forecast seriously

We now have it next week and I had to cancel my appointment to fit it in next week. I wonder if they put any thoughts before just changing these things willy nilly.

I have been busy shopping for a tutu that I shall wear to the sports day

[scarlett]

Hmmm what type/ colour tutu goes with trainers, sweat bands and a determined expression, I wonder ?
