Well, half term holiday is nearly over, and we've survived, more or less. Last night was the infamous sleepover (Thalia, here) which we've been promising the girls since the summer - it just never seemed to work in the summer for one reason or another. Anyway, it went fairly well, and I think they were both asleep by about 11pm. Which for Sarah isn't THAT late, but Thalia goes to sleep very early (read "normal 7-yr-old bedtime") so it must have been a bit of a shock for her system. Tommorrow, unless the weather is dire, I think we're off to Kew to have a look at their pumpkin collection/display and whatnot. We were going to go up to a museum up in town but I think the kids are just too tired to cope. Not to mention, Mummy.
