The Hugging Machine
Saturday morning Callum and I walked up to Richardson Road to pick up a newspaper and have a coffee. In the time it took us to walk there and back he managed to give a big hug to six random members of the older generation. He has a real thing for grey hair!!! One very old man was walking up the street with his walking stick (he would not have managed without it) and Callum gave him such a big cuddle he nearly fell over. Luckily I grabbed his arm just it time.
By late morning I was up on the Downs near Washington (north of Worthing) with Callum and Charlotte for a walk. It was a beautiful day. Callum managed to hug two more retired types (I think I will start a rogues gallery of those who have been Callumed!) and chat to some horses.
On Saturday afternoon Nina and Isaac came to spend the weekend and in the evening the three of us left all three children with a babysitter and headed out to a party!
Sunday was a bit of a slow day due to lack of sleep for all the night before! After Nina and Isaac had left to go home the four of us set about baking some cakes for tea. Delicious!
And finally, a couple of rather cute pictures of Charlotte taken today!

As the joint founder member of the grey-haired brigade who have been "Callumed" these late-comers, blow-ins, johnny-come-latelies (if you'll excuse the expression) should consider themselves privileged. I'd start charging them if I were you. Saving towards school fees or holidays in the former colonies.
