====================================
Today I'm with the JoniBobs.

To make sure we weren't late, I woke Jof up at 0500 and told her it was time to get up. When I finally got there, the 3 of us played ships etc all day until Ben arrived and then we went out front to wash the car.
I am experienced in this as I have washed Pops' car many times so we all partially stripped (it was always going to happen) and washed the car to within an inch of its life, with the help of the ladder slide. This made us all very wet so Ben and I had to wear some of Boberts' old nappies. We found that putting them on our heads as well was amusing. We didn't switch the telly on all day. At 4 Bud picked me up to get new clothes and then he drove me to football where I met - Ben and the JoniBobs.

The fully-recovered Whistler (the boy who knocked out one of his front teeth at football last week) was there - facing his fears of tripping up while drinking out of a plastic bottle.

At home I had supper and because it was so good I had another one.
