On this the weekend where S got her Tripp Trapp from the postman and we had to arrange the whole place to accommodate another little human at the dinner table.Juggling-in-a-sandbox parents of two tots all trapped in a flesh coloured maze on the plains of Leinster. Forever readjusting, some of us catching, some of us launching more and more spinning plates.. Never more than one bobo in elmoo land at the same time. We all share a common admiration for polka dots, pictures, music and words and this seems like the _ideal_ place to share. Feel free to share back.

Have you mentioned Charting the Beatles afore? Because you can't aforemention something if you never mentioned it ...afore.
The song on the compilation where the guy is speaking in German- he's talking about the only good government is a government that doesn't govern or something along those lines - thats the level of my German anyway- poor even after 2 years 2 months and a week- but who's counting??
I had a dream last night me and my girls, you and your girls, Liamak and their girl - basically all of us kiddy blessed met for a big reunion and I think it was upstairs in the Keogh Mansion in Jigginstown :) Sadhbh was standing and nearly walking but she was really miniature, Matilda was like a giant baby but still like a 3 month old, I think Roisín was like a 6 year old. I know Fionn was there with H & M but they didn't say much.
Check this out if you haven't before http://www.newyorker.com/online/podcasts/fiction - nice for the train journey, there's A Man of the World by Frank O'Connor on there, read by Julian Barnes (while discussing it he mentions that a negative side-effect of putting Frank O'Connor on the Inter / Leaving Cert syllabus is that people might avoid him later on - an effect he describes as "Peig Sayers Syndrome" !! )
I retract unreservedly the query regarding "aforementioned" as you had indeed mentioned it afore. Humble apologies.
matilda roisín doireann sadhbh - what are we like? how i miss you boring me to distraction with your vivid dreams. if there was a window i'd throw you out of it. are you 2 years in germany already?
2 years and 4 months this Paddy's day :) Clyde was over for the weekend-great to see him.
My dream last night was about comparatives & superlatives - sometimes the teaching english lark goes to my head...
give my best to your 3 princesses - hope alles ist schön bei euch :D
