Nora is starting to wake more - especially at night!
She's found out how to control her eyes to a certain extent. As her vision starts to improve she is now beginning to actually look around.
Look totally bewildered and confused the whole time of course!!

Elsi has suddenly clicked how to ride her trike and whizzes around on it now like a nutter. She can steer well now and likes to dive into the garage at the last minute.

The others are back to school and exhausted.
All the building work over the summer has confused poor Stan - they haven't finished his 'new' classroom yet so Class 1 are in temporary accommodation this week.
Cards and cakes flooding in from people in the playground we haven't seen all summer. Mrs Cz is more gorgeous than everD

Robin came back to the garden wall this morning, singing his winter song.

Seasons change with the scenery
Weaving time in a tapestry

Tomorrow sees my first visit from my old boss at LJ since I moved to Southampton and went freelance 13 years ago. He wants to see how we're doing with the World Atlas, and to be honest it isn't that great.
His client (DK) have been slow sending data through to him, and then his staff have not sent it on to me.
The Indians are slow getting it back, and now the quality of that input data is deteriorating and giving them all kinds of unforeseen problems.
They simply don't have the skill base to deal with it.
The trouble is of course that DK think they are working with LJ - who don't actually employ any competent cartography staff anymore, which is why I got the job in the first place. But they don't trust me enough to let me liaise directly with the client, which would save so much time in stead of having to play Chinese whispers with questions.
