Never one for the easy option...

Thursday (oops amended from Friday - good job I re-read the letter!), as I am sure most of you are well aware, is World Book Day.  So dressing up as a favourite book character is the name of the game for dear son.

To this!


I still need to give it a good press and tidy up all the lose threads, but little Wally should be impressed!  I will take photos on Friday.
