goes to young sam who has now played cricket, rugby, badminton and golf with tennis to come next week. Not to mention is weekly swimming lesson. So far he has enjoyed badminton the best, which surprised me as I thought he would really like ruby. I think he was put off by the fact it was tag rugby and he couldn't just go around tackling people at will. Once he has finished tennis next week we have said that he can choose one other activity (other than swimming) to do on a weekly basis. We have managed to find swimming lessons, though not sadly at the pool he is currently at. There the waiting list is about a year long! He will have to wear a swimming cap at these new lessons which he is not that keen on but he has no choice.
The week disapeared in a haze of sporting activities and thunderstorms. Managed to get caught in the bad one on thursday as we went into the sports hall for cricket. When we left two hours later my jeans were still soaking wet! Friday we went back to pborough for the dentist and to get the car serviced-luckily both had reasonable out comes. Managed to meet up with two of the boys which was delightful. Sam played for all he was worth and was on such a high that he didn't stop nattering the whole way home. With any luck we should be seeing all the boys at the beginning of sept before they go back to school.
A quiet weekend-we popped into the city centre yesterday to look for fil's bday present. Spent some time wandering aroundthe lanes-could be a very dangerous place to go shopping! lots of lovely stores-so mustn't go there without a sam escort. He is my voice of reason and will say "mummy you are not supposed to buy anything remember" So young and so wise. The boys bought an airfix model of the stealth bomber and spent the evening putting it together. I think all they have to do now is paint it.
Just pottered today-had a very lazy start to the day with a magic school bus marathon on dvd while we all snuggled under the duvet.
Busy week next week with tennis 4 out of the 5 days. It is in the afternoon though so no rushing out the door at the crack of dawn thankfully. Plan to spend the morning doing normals and the afternoon wearing sam out. sounds like a good combination.

Although Sam may not grow up to be a sports star, the sportsmanship training that he is receiving will be with him forever. Keep up the good work.
thank you! I think he is enjoying the experience. Tennis was okay today and he is keen to go back tomorrow.
