The Amazing World of Si Hart

Amazing insights into my mind as I battle against the inefficient world of the library, moderate a message board, write Doctor Who audio adventures and try and stay sane!

Barbeque me do

Steve and I sat down to watch Father's Day (appropriate, huh) with my nephew last night. It was great to finally watch some Doctor Who with him. As the titles came up, he was singing along with the theme music and then turned to me and said "This is the best bit isn't it?" I just grinned! It's lovely to see him so enthusiastic about the show, and without any prompting from me either, even though by default I seem to be getting the blame for it.
It just goes to show that this is a programme that captures the imagination of kids. How can that be a bad thing?

It was a good weekend. We had friends over for our first barbeque on Saturday night. Despite leaving Tim in charge (sorry Tim!) it went very well indeed and we didn't poison anyone with half cooked chicken drumsticks or charred sausages! It all bodes well for when we do it on a huge scale in a few weeks time.
Shame about the pollen which didn't do Steve, Chris or Ian any good all night. I'm lucky not to suffer I think, after seeing them all sat with their red noses and bleary eyes. Poor Steve was in bed most of yesterday feeling miserable and drowsy. Whether it was the pollen, an overdose of anti-hystermines or a combination we don't know, but he didn't look well, poor thing.

Made Mum a Coconut birthday cake yesterday. That turned out well. I love baking cakes!

Mmmmn, BBQ - one day we hope to have one and invite loads of people.
