Pick'n'Mix

Yet another cinema trip. Betsy was back at school today so just me and Al, this time to see Planes.

I relaxed my usual 'no cinema-bought snacks' rule as far as allowing Pick'n'Mix, the most expensive one of all.

Usually I bring my own. It's what my friend Jo would describe as 'a bit Nesbit'.

Betsy was quite happy to go back. I was surprised. Al goes back tomorrow.

Betsy got to choose tonight's dinner; salmon pie. Tomorrow will be Al's choice.

I hate the holidays ending. I love spending lots of time with Betsy and Al and wish time would pass slower. In the next six months Al will hit double figures and Betsy will become a teenager. I can't beleive it.
