the goldfish trap
i can’t believe fairgrounds are still allowed to give goldfish as prizes. they are a complete nightmare for all involved, especially the fish.
i saw quite a few children wandering round with small bags of goldfish. proudly presenting them to their parents, who then had to purchase a goldfish bowl and food at inflated prices from the stall where they’d ‘luckily’ won them.
dreadful business
the big concert
both esther and kezia’s orchestras played in an extravaganza yesterday. it was very good, but we now realise that as our girls get older their concerts will get longer. this one was 2 and a half hours, and although very good, we were slightly relieved when we could exit the rather warm venue.
anyway i grabbed the shot above at the end of kezia’s orchestra’s practice, so i wouldn’t get evicted.
