The Lion King
Watched The Lion King earlier. Ben started getting annoyed towards the end “but when is the Lion Guard coming onnnn!!” 🙄 I still remember 90% of the songs and dialogue. Unsure if it’s too Disney film but it’s top five for sure. Others are Aladdin, The Mighty Ducks, Jungle Book, the Aristocats. Not counting newer…

300 nursery check-ins
I’ve missed a few but that is a solid record. Interestingly, Swarm shows only 292 check-ins, maybe it doesn’t count Foursquare check-ins? Or later additions? Hard to comprehend that B will be in primary school in August! 😲

Take a nice photo!

Literally living the definition of Boxing Day today. Including the complete move about of a certain four-year-olds bedroom.

Another Balgay Walk
We’ve started going out at the weekend for a walk around Balgay which I’ve posted about before. Some people take the mantra of Dundee being the “Sunniest City” to new levels: It was another dreary day but this didn’t stop us finding some weird gargoyles at the Pavilion: Those trainers didn’t stay white…
