Tired but home

We hand our children over to these amazing people who volunteer to run school and scout trips abroad, then just have to assume that no news is good news. Definitely part of the 'growing up' that parents have to do.

M returned from his first trip with the 4th Leith to Belgium & Holland today. He's survived 2 overnight ferries, 4 nights in hostel dorms and having to wear a kilt on a chilly day in Ypres, and seems to have had a great time (from what we've heard so far).

Oddly, even though older lad has done this trip a few times already, the anxiety about saying goodbye to M was as just as strong as it had been with A.
