Good clean Fullerian fun
APOLOGIES in advance for those that feel I have over-indulged writing about Fullerians recently, but this past weekend I have been on tour with Finlay, the third youngest of our seven children. We went to Worcester with Fullers' under 11s and I can't let the event pass without note.

Reasons to be cheerful
IT'S been festival time as far as the local rugby scene is concerned and two of my little ones have been hard at it in recent weeks.

Little Phoebe's proud moment
US Ansells are rather chuffed with our little princess Phoebe Jean at the moment.

Travis puts his foot in it
My 10-year-old Finlay has been a little down in the mouth lately. He loves his rugby, but during the past fortnight he has had no less than four fixtures cancelled.

Great expectations
EVERYONE loves getting surprise packages through the post and one arrived at our home in Blackwell Drive last week and caused considerable interest.

What's top of the box?
I READ at the weekend that the BBC is planning to relaunch its children's channels CBBC and CBeebies. Thank goodness for that.

Show me the way to go home
IT is a fact of life that if you drive and you are a parent you will spend huge chunks of your life acting as a taxi driver, without enjoying the traditional perks of the job such as getting paid, getting tipped or even being thanked for your services.

There's no place like home, alone
THE house was strangely tidy when we got back from our long weekend billeted at Lookout Caravan Park in Wareham, Dorset.

Left in the cold by boiler havoc
THE children have been under strict instructions this week at school. Under no circumstances should they put their hands up to answer any questions and they must not lean across anyone or stretch particularly in any way as there may be a bit of, for want of a better phrase, a BO problem.
