Developments

[poliphilo]

Ailz would have been going to church this morning if Ourdert had been going too- but Ourdert is helping a friend at a car boot sale.  She was round here yesterday afternoon with a gift of a pasta dish with sardines in it. She tells us the Muslim guy I took to meet the evangelicals and who then disappeared is back at church again and says he would marry her if she wasn't married already.  A month ago he was 20,  now he's 23. What kept him away from church was the ear-ache.

She painted her toe-nails and we played with Fabrizio. Last time he was here- about a fortnight ago-  I put the xylophone in front of him and all he wanted to do was suck the stick. Now he knows to bang the keys.
