Just...

a girl, her carrots and a cathedral green picnic. 

"I BOUGHT US CARROTS MAMA" she messaged me from Tesco. She is quite renowned at school for her tendency to buy and munch through a bag of carrots. 

Time at her non-boarder friends "house" this afternoon. They all went to hang out on Cathedral Green - exactly as they do anyway, when she's not "visiting". 

She's reduced her painkillers a bit now. And there's a lot of smiles and bubbly. All heading in the right direction. 

Edited to add bonus photo from the boarding staff posted last night!
