So apart from wringing our hands about houses…
…what did we do today?
Well, I re-uploaded the HEdNI site, now that I’ve finally got my hands on the name-server settings. Everything now appears to be working as it should (except for the cron-job so I can post here by email, but that will have to wait).
Barney did some English, French, Latin and maths. George did some Latin and maths, and some history. Freddy spent a long time looking at his book and groaning - not his most productive day ever. And Jack - well, he did his usual thing of demanding a book and a pencil and then ignoring both in favour of pestering everyone else.
BBC producer person visited again; she likes what Barney has done so far and has left a bunch of questions/suggestions for him to produce more material.
Barney and George had circus school this evening, fortunately George had got over his earlier pique at having other people existing in the world and was able to go.
Have had an email about an archery group that meets in a town about 25 minutes from here, but can’t get hold of anyone at the phone number. I’ll try again tomorrow morning, but apparently the classes start tomorrow, so it might be a tight fit to get Scratchy home in time for the kids to go. Barney’s been wanting to do more archery since he got to try it at Cub Camp last June, but I’ve not been able to find a club willing to take anyone younger than 10, so I’d really like him to go to this one. I’m told they take kids as young as 5, so George and Freddy could go too.
One of the cats has developed a fascination with the shower in my bedroom. I don’t know why. In fact I don’t even know why I have a shower in my bedroom - it’s not a very good shower and there’s one in the bathroom. I’d much rather have a second toilet in there. But anyway, I’ve got a shower, even if the entrance to it is so narrow that it’s a tight squeeze to get in (and that’s why the entrance has a dresser in front of it). But anyway, one of the cats has decided it’s fascinating, so she keeps climbing over the dresser to investigate.
And that’s the summary of today’s events 
In: animals, education, family, putering, social stuff

Okay, you are going to have to email me your childrens names and ages so i can stop being confused. Can you put their ages in brackets after their initial so i can match them to the photos?!
Have written all over my children’s photo, just for you
(It’s an old photo btw - about 2.5 years ago! Really must get some new ones done!)
Been thinking about workarounds for the cron job - just occurred to me that maybe we could move the file that it’s trying to access outside of the passworded bit, just repoint some paths in it - haven’t looked at the code to see if it’s feasible, but worth further investigation.
Otherwise, I’m seeing a unix geek tomorrow who may have other suggestions.
Haven’t forgotten about it though.
