assorted leftover bits:

The Little Mathsgirl got her SAT results. She got an 8 in maths, which I think is basically an A! Squee! She got nearly double the marks she got in her mocks before I started teaching her! More squee! Not that I'm taking the credit - well, it would be false to say I'm not taking any of the credit because it is giving me a warm glow and a sense of "I must be doing something right". Still, I didn't do much more than read the book out to her; her brain just slurps up facts as fast as you can dish them out. But... well, I've never seen her actually grinning as much as she did yesterday and that makes me happy.

And I had the best damn weekend in recent memory, which among much else featured a ROBOT HORSE!


A robot horse that played an eerie tune!

And the air smells so good after the rain.

Hows about tonight then? Sometime early evening for BEER?

Yup, that's the weekend of the 14th. It may be so good I have to go again.

Or we could make our own robot animals. I'm sure there's a kit somewhere.

I'd love to. (Building robots, but also the other suggestion.) I can't, though, I have a plan with my friend Jo before she gets eaten by London this coming weekend. Soon!
