Got the girls back today. M was very sad and cried on and off all the way back home. A seemed fine, as usual. Had a veiled lecture from C about my parenting skills, or lack of them. Ashley and Robin were staying too and I felt that the strain on the adults was beginning to show.
We've had a pretty good afternoon, so far. Did a few creative thank you letters, played Ali Baba and the grumpy camel (which was hilarious, not least because it genuinely scared the pants off me) and now they are playing with the marble run that Steve gave them.
The flat is a tip but I am trying to be laid back about it. Mary Poppins is showing on the tely at the moment but neither of them seem remotely interested. Granny will approve of their tastes!
Had a few texts from S but haven't replied yet. Can't decide what to do about him. Maybe I will be clearer in my mind when I see him again. It's been ages.
