Manhunt

School. Everybody's got to do it. So we had tests with Lego bricks as the reward for each correct answer with special blocks such as doors for 2-markers or 3-markers. It was still a test, however you dress it up.

And we got forewarning of a topic project - The Lion King. I have, of course, met the Lion King before, both on screen and onstage.

We are invited to audition for roles of varying sizes and I'm hungry for lines - I want to be the Line King, aha.

So I was very happy right up until I discovered that my doorkey was missing. No, I didn't check my bag this morning, not my job.

Clearly I have only 1 man to blame for this and sent 2 angry texts and 2 missed calls and then Bensmum picked us up and took us to Jabba the Beach Hutt where I had cheesy chips and we played Manhunt in the forest of unforgiveness and the toilets are miles away and I had lots of retribution to think about.

Yes, it does look like the swan is sitting on a bench. And then Bud picked me up and had found the keys in Jof's second handbag and all was forgiven and I went to Scouts. We played shooting-each-other-with-lava-balls and 2 Chief Scout Gold Award badges (the one I want) were handed out. I got the Scouts Entertainer badge for doing the 50 hours or so it took to complete the Wind in the Willows.
