she's back!

Pickle's been on her year 5 residential trip with school this week, and came back from Pulau Sibu (an island of eastern Malaysia) this afternoon, looking tired, tanned, happy and possibly a little more knowing, and smelling slightly musty!  The first thing she did when she saw me was squeeze me like a snake, which was lovely.  I think we've all REALLY missed her.  Breakfast was the strangest, as that's when we're generally all together, and by the time we got to this morning's cornflakes, it seemed like she'd been gone for an age.

She's been regaling us with stories ever since she got back, about making fire, building shelters, making bamboo rice, eating satay to mention but a few.... Then promptly fell asleep whilst Betsy was reading us all a story.  I think we still have a huge amount more to learn, and a whole heap more washing to do, but I'm really looking forward to hearing all about it this weekend - it's GREAT to have her back!

Happy weekending xo
