Peter and Andrew

Peter has carried on being part of the school choir (few boys at his school do!) and will be singing at the Albert Hall again very soon as part of a massive Bucks schools Christmas event. This time Andrew will be in the audience—we’ll have to see if the singing bug bites him too (but no sign of that being likely). Peter has also kept up learning the guitar although doesn’t seem to practice much. Another of his skills is very useful—he usually ‘drives’ the pc at church which displays  the song words, and very good at it he is too. Another hobby he’s adopted this year is doing magic tricks—he’s always trying to invent new ones or searching YouTube for some quick and free lessons. Another sideline of his is eating pasta, usually managing to put away more than his parents (must be a growing lad). Andrew is a lad of simple tastes both in terms of food and his interests. The online worlds of RuneScape and Club Penguin are regular destinations, and the Wii and his Gameboy both get frequent hammering. He’s still not bothered about sport or even learning to ride a bike; plenty of time for those sorts of things as he gets older of course. He enjoys helping his Mum look after the hamsters; he ensures that all his cuddly toys get a fair share of attention at bedtime; he’s a natural at Maths; and he loves babies. An interesting young lad!

They get on together as well as they ever did and still share a bedroom—probably they’d hate not to. They can carry on with that arrangement for a while yet as we are planning to extend the house next year, which will include making their room a bit bigger. We’re hoping in the current climate that we will get some very competitive builder’s quotes!
