Katie, Jonny and I have been studying Shakespeare using this brilliant Usborne book:
We've just finished Hamlet and for it we made a puppet theatre and retold the story:
Spending time with neighbours on the roof:
Two little girls from next door are pretty bored (especially as it's Ramadan now) and love popping over and doing things with our children:
On the subject of visitors, we've been finding this in-between phase of the corona lockdown really tricky. There was a victory celebration in our city over corona (everyone went onto their roofs and let off fireworks and fired guns: 13 got injured- we decided to make a hasty retreat inside when we heard all the guns). But after the celebrations the number of cases started to rise again. We have though been having visitors and we really can't tell them they're not allowed in. One family came to visit all the way from their camp. It's definitely a new path we're walking- as is the whole world- and there are so many unknowns. It was, however, lovely to have our friends visit (even though it meant school had to stop); I really have missed them.
We've been having some amazing thunderstorms recently:
We went out for an explore in the hills near our neighbourhood:
Tigris has had two more kittens!
Jonny has taken up woodwork:
Lockdown blanket number 3 finished! This one is for Jonny and I'm running out of wool (as you can probably tell by the strange colour combos!):
