Through Locky Cosmo discovers 'Harry Potter' or rather he is now obsessed.  Locky proves to be a massive inspiration, he's already finished reading all the H.P books.  So school is made easy for a week or so with the insentive of making broom sticks and other paraphonalia with the altimate excitement of playing Quiditch on the trampoline all afternoon.  Z and Mia just pootle being alittle less 'OCD'  but having a near perfect time together.  Tearing them away isn't easy they even manage to get a couple more nights in the anchorage out of Colin.  Cosmo was horribly emotional the day we left Locky, its now a good six weeks later and each day there's talk of Locky,  His only comfort seems to be audio H.P brilliantly read by Steven Fry.

 

It has to be said also that I really have had my fill of daily trips to Carrefore and given I'm now worrying if we have enough anchovies for the next 6 months another visit is perhaps over indulgent.  Z and I take our final visit in to the frip and fabric shops in Pap's again to by a little more unneccessary bits of fabric and to say a wonderful farwell and give our lovely pearl shop friends a hug.  Chippy is gorgeaous and big hit with Z and so it seems visa vee as Z is given a pearl hair clasp,  in what other country in what other town would you a shop keeper give you pearls, and given all we've done is have a few holes drilled it's remarkable.
