So. The last week before Christmas, and in Exeter it´s all hotting up - although it´s pretty quiet where we live. Most of the students have gone so I have my choice of parking spaces and no drunken undergraduates waking us up in the middle of the night. Freyja and I played tennis on campus this morning as we often do at weekends- but now there was no waiting for a court to free up! Jói and dad arrived late on Thursday night and are currently flaked out infront of the telly eating mince pies. Meanwhile, F and T are having an early night as they have a hectic last week of term ahead - Freyja is playing her flute in assembly tomorrow morning, it´s school Christmas dinner on Wednesday, the infants´nativity play on Thursday and the Christmas party on Friday. I´m supposed to be researching musical learning in playschools right now but as you can see I´m taking a break!
