The incredible swimming superstar who wears a sporren!

Armed with her swimming costume and her wits Lucy is going great guns with her swimming lessons. Amy tells me her confidence in the water goes from strength to strength. She goes on her back, kicks her legs, puts her face under the water and wades quite happily in up to her chin. Well done Looby chick! Anna as you can see prefers less sedate sports and has taken to bashing anything at arms length with a golf club! Next step anger management classes for you young lady. Lucy and I had a fantastic afternoon yesterday, as usual Amy had deserted us for some retail therapy. We grabbed a coffee in Starbucks and chilled out in the unexpected July sunshine and listened to a bagpipe busker in Norwich. Lucy quite literally enchanted about thirty people as she danced away to the music - spinning, turning, jumping and giggling. Children have no inhibitions - she even clapped herself! Which made her audience love her more. I could not bring myself to exploit her talents for money, but we were given some smarties!
