Bonfire Night

The Child continues to be scared of fireworks.  We nearly made it to the fireworks display at Filey, but as we approached and the fireworks started, so did the ‘I want to go home’ tantrum.  As annoying as it might have been, it was expected.  And we got to see some fireworks as we drove home.  It’d just be nice to actually be able to do stuff like this with her without there being a tantrum.  And yes, I know she’s scared of loud sounds, but it is becoming quite a problem.  At times anyway.  I can’t even get her on a train.  Grrr.  Oh well.

The snails go back to school tomorrow.  They’ve been really boring all day today.  The Child and I were hoping to be able to hold them, but they’ve both been stuck to the lid of the tank all afternoon.  Boring things.  I hope I haven’t accidentally killed them.  I have to confess I am becoming increasingly concerned by their inactivity.  Is the tank too dry?  Is it too moist?  Did I not wash the veg well enough, and have I accidentally finished them off with pesticides?  I need to stop stressing.  They’ll probably come alive again soon.  I hope so anyway.  Hmmm.  I can’t even manage plants, so maybe I shouldn’t have attempted snails.  Oh dear.  But I’m sure they’ll be fine.  Hopefully anyway.
